Creative Writing Camps & Classes for Kids

If your child enjoys storytelling, reading, or expressing themselves through words, they might be ready for creative writing lessons. They should be able to write simple sentences and have an interest in creating stories.

Prices for creative writing classes can range from $30 to $100 per session, depending on the length and focus of the class.

Look for instructors with a background in English, literature, or creative writing, as well as experience in teaching or publishing. A portfolio of their writing and testimonials from past students can also be useful.

Encourage your child to read widely, keep a journal, or write stories and poems at home. They can also participate in writing contests, join writing clubs, or attend local literary events.

Children as young as 6 or 7 can start with basic storytelling exercises, while older children can explore more structured creative writing techniques.
