From the Perspective of Neel Academy of Visual Arts

In today’s world—where children grow up in an environment of speed and complexity—finding inspiring resources for parents, educators, and child development specialists is more important than ever.

Creative Child Magazine stands out as one of the leading publications dedicated to childhood growth, learning, play, and education, with creativity at the heart of its philosophy.

At Neel Academy of Visual Arts, we see this magazine as a source of inspiration for designing workshops, artistic games, creative programs, and educational approaches both in the classroom and at home.
