The Tempest
Studying Shakespeare at any age, but especially from a young age, is transformative for the mind and soul. William Shakespeare’s works may be close to 400 years old, but the lessons and themes in his plays are timeless. Studies have proven that children that study Shakespeare have a deeper understanding of all literature they study, have greater empathy and are more appreciative of history and its impact on literature and society. Additionally, studying Shakespeare helps heighten creative play and imagination.
