Your kids need less screen time. Here’s why.

Posted on 3 hours ago

Screens are everywhere… in the classroom, at home, and in the pocket.

And sure, technology has its place… but there’s a problem.

Kids are watching more than they’re doing.

And research keeps showing us that too much screen time leads to shorter attention spans, less social interaction, and fewer creative opportunities.

Which is not great.

But hands-on learning is different.

After exploring Picasso’s cubism, MTM students use “chalk staining” to create their own abstract masterpiece.

When kids paint, sculpt, and draw, they’re building skills screens can’t teach:

  • Fine motor control and coordination
  • Better focus and memory
  • Real creativity, confidence, and problem-solving

Art gives kids what they need: real-world, hands-on experience.

And with Meet the Masters, students don’t just watch…. they create:

  • They explore their imagination. 
  • They study master artists and techniques. 
  • They build social and emotional skills by sharing ideas.

One masterpiece at a time, they’re learning in ways that stick.

Balance matters, and art provides it.

Are you ready to bring more hands-on learning to your classroom?

Everyone Loves MTM!

We have been enjoying Meet the Masters at Friends Christian School for about 7 years. I am so impressed with the program. It has taught the children not only facts about a particular artist but also a love of art. Many of the students who are not excelling academically find a talent or expression in art that they may not find anywhere else. This builds their self-confidence. I have seen this time and time again. Our MTM teacher has been such an inspiration to our students with her passion and enthusiasm. The way she leads the assembly with slides, hands-on objects, facts, and background of the artist has the kids so intently listening it is amazing. The children are able to recall facts about the artist long after the project, because it is taught in such an interesting and exciting way. Being someone who loves art and creativity I wanted to thank you for this program for our school and thank you for sending a teacher who loves what she does.

We are truly blessed.
