Modeling and acting share the spotlight but differ in skills and goals. Learn how to decide which path suits your child best — and how to prepare them for both.

The Difference Between Modeling and Acting for Kids

While both are performative arts, with actors often seen moonlighting as models, and vice versa, at their very core, modeling and acting are two different entertainment professions with varied goals and required skills. Learn below on what are the differences between the two, and which might be the best option for your aspiring kid performer.

<ul dir="ltr">
	<li>Modeling and acting can seem very similar. Yet there are fundamental differences between the two.</li>
	<li>The challenges can vary. While modeling focuses on physical looks, acting is more demanding regarding performances.</li>

Voice acting offers kids a fun way into performance. From spotting vocal talent to building demo reels and setting up a home studio, here’s how to get started.

Child Voice Acting: Opportunities and Home Setup Tips

Voice acting is an exciting and constantly growing field of work for kid performers. Not only can it be a fun new pursuit for the children, but potentially could also be done from the comfort of their own home. Learn more below.&nbsp;

<ul dir="ltr">
	<li>Parents can discover their child&#39;s talent in daily settings. The kid might be actively vocal during their playtime.</li>
	<li>Voice acting requires development. A child&#39;s natural talents will need training before seriously pursuing casting calls.</li>

Rejection is an inevitable part of acting and modeling. Discover advice for parents on helping kids process setbacks, build resilience, and focus on growth.

How to Handle Rejection: Advice for Parents and Kids

It is never pleasant to receive rejection in any aspect of life, but it can be especially tough as a performer. The reality, though, is that every model or actor will have to face and handle rejections, as it is an unavoidable part of show business. As kids are still learning to build their resilience in the face of adversity, here are a few useful pieces of advice to aspiring performers and their parents.

<ul dir="ltr">
	<li>Accept that rejection is a natural occurrence. No model or actor goes through their career without rejections.</li>
	<li>Change how the auditions are viewed. It is not all just about the final result, but also about trusting the process of personal growth.</li>
	<li>Managing the expectations realistically. The results of casting calls are the sum of complex criteria where nothing is guaranteed.</li>
