Renowned artist, Ms. Chris Cruikshank, president and co-founder of KidzArt, is now offering “Expert Advice” on Nickelodeon’s ParentsConnect.com Web site. The site strives to provide parents with daily tips, recipes, activities, product recommendations, expert (but nonjudgmental) parenting information as well as family-friendly resources in local communities.

Cruikshank is one of many expert contributors who offers advice to parents in a question and answer format on topics ranging from health and development to activities and entertainment. As an artist and president of an international art education franchise company, Cruikshank offers tips and ideas on how to incorporate art and creativity into children’s lives for fun, academic benefits or even stress relief.

“I’m proud to be able to offer my professional advice to support parents in encouraging their kids to be the creative problem solvers of tomorrow. Art is a fun way to stimulate imaginative thinking and creative solutions to everyday challenges that children face,” says Cruikshank. “One of my roles at KidzArt is to develop art curriculum that will empower children and increase their perception and awareness of the world around them. I hope I can assist parents by conveying some of these principles on ParentsConnect.”
