Kids Act LA

With many kids acting classes to choose from, selecting the right one for your child can seem daunting. In regards to classes, one has to determine first whether the class is to be recreational or vocational, i.e., your kid wants to take an acting class for fun or your kid wants to be in commercials, film, TV or professional theatre - which can also be fun, but is more involved and ultimately, more costly in both time and money. If the acting class is to be recreational, check with your local schools and your local park and recreation centers. In addition, check with other parents with kids already taking acting classes for recommendations, in much the same way you would for a camp, school or a scout troupe. Classes offered at park and recreation centers, as well as after-school programs and some little theatres can be less expensive than those offered by agents, casting directors or professional kids acting teachers and coaches.

As parents, you have numerous opportunities every day to help shape your child's future through the kinds of experiences you provide. You are, in effect, your child's first teacher. If you provide rich, exciting experiences, your child's learning potential is nurtured and that sponge's absorption capacity is amplified. Excel your child's listening abilities by tape recording sounds from nature such as a bird singing or the wind blowing, thunder rolling or anything else you can find. Tape record environment sounds such as a car driving by, a door shutting, a faucet running or a horn blowing. The more sounds you can tape, the better.

The human mind is like a sponge, and from the baby's first days the nature of the events it experiences contributes to its feelings of security and self-esteem. Many of the earliest impressions of the world become major factors in both personal growth potential and eventual self-esteem. Here are some of the most potent of these early experiences. A very wise, very old, Native American man once put it to me this way: "During his first three years the child listens to what others say about him and watch how they treat him. Those things define in his mind who and what he is. He then spends the rest of his life trying to live up to that picture - to prove it is true and accurate." Basically, this old gentleman hit it right on the head. Fortunately, there are now methods that can help replace any harmful early impressions one acquires about himself with productive, positive, beliefs and behaviors. When a youngster is not fortunate enough to have his personal growth fostered i...
