First, the influence of art on physiology.
Children are born to love art-painting, music and drama. Unfortunately, when the school cut its budget, art courses were the first to be cancelled. The school doesn't seem to find the importance of art in building children's brains.
The human brain is divided into two parts, the left brain and the right brain. The left brain is mainly used for logical thinking and process analysis, and is usually trained in school, including mathematics, reading and science. The right brain dominates emotion, intuition and creativity. When a person participates in creative activities (such as art), it is mainly the right brain at work. What school education ignores is the cultivation of this part of the brain.
Research shows that when a gifted child solves a problem, the electrical activity on both sides of his brain will be enhanced. This shows that for the brain, the left and right brains must work together to be more effective. Art can strengthen the connection between the left and right brain by stimulating and exercising the right brain. When children learn art, they should let the right brain promote the cooperation between the two brains, so as to achieve the effect of stimulating their full potential.
