Pre-Dinner Stress: After School Clubs to the Rescue

Making the Most of “Golden Hour” with Online After School Class

We’ve all been there. Its early evening. The day is rapidly drawing to a close. You’re working from home, paying bills, folding laundry, figuring out what to do about dinner. The online school day is over, but the kids need some type of worthwhile supervised activity which will free you up to get dinner on the table.  When the sun is settling into an amber glow – or “golden hour”, as it is known in the world of film and photography. If all goes well during golden hour, you can make magic happen. There’s order in the home, the children are fed and bedded down for the night, and you live to fight another day. That would be your day, if only you could keep the kids from bouncing off the walls so you can hear yourself think!  

If this is you, online after school programming might be just thing to keep your kids engaged in fun, safe, and enriching activities, while you’re trying to finish work and do the thousand and one things a parent needs done in order to bring the family down the home stretch.

“With the pandemic, it isn’t feasible to enroll children in in-person classes or have hired help to come to your home to supervise your children, so online after school classes are a terrific alternative,” says Tim Fitzgerald, vice president of Performing Arts Workshops. “They’re affordable, accessible, and don’t require leaving the safety of your home.”

He adds, “PAW does everything from acting technique, hip hop, singing & vocal training, Karate, guitar & ukulele, chess club, debate for kids, yoga, ballet, stand up comedy, songwriting, to several choices of Mommy & Me Classes!  If you do a quick search, you’ll see that there’s something for just about everyone.” Mr. Fitzgerald continued, “This isn’t like sitting your kids in front of the TV to watch Trolls for the hundredth time. When a child is being actively engaged, they’re loving to learn, and that’s the most important thing. And that love of learning will in turn help them do better in school. That time during golden hour. It’s an investment you can feel good about.”

School may still be on Zoom,  but the options for FUN & RECHARGING activities are endless!

After a long year, 2021 has finally arrived! And, along with it, PAW’s Online Winter After School Term is here! While the school day may be filled with vital, intense core content, PAW (and other reputable after school enrichment providers) is happy to help provide online opportunities in the arts and humanities, which are so crucial to a child having a well-rounded education. “Zoom is the great equalizer because you now have so many choices and that is a wonderful opportunity for children” says Cheryl Appleman, president of Performing Arts Workshops. “For example, some class choices might not be available in your school or your community, but now you have a nation’s-worth of classes to select from. We’re based out of Los Angeles, so we have some of the most finely trained artists and teachers on our faculty. They’re passionate about the subjects they teach, and now they can extend their reach and share their knowledge with students across the country. Do you live in a small town with ...

NEVER FEAR… MORE AFTER SCHOOL ON ZOOM IS HERE! Classes Begin October 19th!

By popular demand…we are happy to announce the list of our next session of Online After-School Classes which run from Mid-October to Mid-December!   Performing Arts Workshops’ summer of 2020 showed us that when children participate in interactive Zoom classes in the Arts it energizes and excites them for online learning, setting them up for success! It may seem counter intuitive, but when children are given the chance to participate in fun and uplifting activities through Zoom, it re-energizes them and opens their minds up to learning the important lessons and topics of school on a similar platform and actually counters Zoom Fatigue. Thanks to the requests of our PAW Families for more classes, we are excited to offer an additional session of online after school workshops this Fall and registration is now open to all ! Knowing that our program has helped children become more receptive and comfortable with their academic school studies on the Zoom platform is very rewarding to us. ...
