Young Actors Playground

Acting somehow, even at a young age, gets this connotation that because someone is acting training as a child, that they are going to be doing it for forever and that they will only want to do this for the rest of their lives.

Also, some parents assume that acting training always leads directly to an acting career.

Both of these are false assumptions.

In fact, more children that train in acting in their younger years, go on to professions outside of acting, than those that say within the industry.

Acting should be just like all other things that children can desire to do and have fun with.

Acting should be seen as a strong foundation to a lot of opportunities in their lives, just the way playing sports are a great foundation for their longer-term health.
