Should Preschoolers Join Talent Development Classes Early?

During the golden years of development – from 18 months to 5 years – many parents start to consider enrolling their child in enrichment classes such as art, dance, music, or martial arts. However, it’s common to wonder: “Is it too early?” or “Am I pressuring my child too much?”
In truth, the real question isn’t when to start, but how – through the right teaching approach and an environment tailored to young learners.

‍

Should Talent Be Discovered or Trained at This Age?

Preschoolers learn best when they are encouraged with joy and freedom. At this stage, talents like art, music, and movement should never be treated like formal subjects with performance pressure or academic targets. Instead, they serve as a powerful way for children to:

• Explore their senses
  
  
• Express themselves creatively
  
  
• Develop coordination between body, mind, and emotion
  
  
• Improve focus and curiosity about the world

When guided gently, these talents grow naturally and healthily – without stress. That’s why choosing a nurturing, child-centered learning environment is far more important than how early a child begins.

Here are some highlight talent classes at TAS:

• Visual Arts: Introduction to color, shape, and free-form creation to spark imagination
  
  
• Music & Rhythm: Listening, moving to beats, and exploring simple instruments to nurture musicality and emotions
  
  
• Creative Movement: Dance, kids yoga, and themed physical games to support gross motor skills and hand–eye coordination
  
  
• STEAM for Little Learners: Fun building, hands-on experiments, and object exploration to spark scientific thinking and logic

All activities are led by specially trained educators with expertise in early childhood, ensuring quality instruction aligned with international preschool standards. At TAS, teachers don’t just “teach” – they guide, inspire, and explore alongside each child.
