Twenty art projects inspired by famous artworks for budding mini artists aged 3-6 years.
The benefits of art to young children are well known.
Art stimulates curiosity, creativity and the imagination.
It also cultivates wellbeing, but being creative with young children can feel surprisingly daunting – and this is where Mini Artists comes in.
The twenty projects in Mini Artists are designed to engage children with art through making.
Mini artists will discover drip painting with Jackson Pollock, carve soap sculptures with Barbara Hepworth, and create their own obliteration room with Yayoi Kusama.
They’ll also travel through time and explore art from different periods, from cave painting to Medieval stained-glass, and Chinese ink painting to washable graffiti inspired by Jean-Michel Basquiat.
Each project requires minimal set-up so the maximum amount of time is spent creating together, and the step-by-step instructions show photographs of the projects in progress so they can be followed at a glance.
The projects use simple materials, from clay to ink to paint.
