Discovering, marveling, and creating art

In the family program ART FOR TOTS, children at the State Museum Schwerin experience art at eye level. The child-friendly event combines curious observation, playful discovery, and creative design into a special family experience filled with children's laughter, shared time, and fun learning.

With open eyes through the museum spaces

Children aged three to six explore the paintings and museum spaces together with an adult companion. They observe art with multiple senses, discover image motives in playful situations, and are encouraged to express their own observations. The tour is age-appropriate and supports perception, language, imagination, and initial discussions about colors, shapes, and stories.

From wonder to creating their own artwork

After the tour, the creative part begins. The children take their impressions and create their own picture. This connection between seeing, understanding, and doing creates a valuable learning experience: art remains not only on the wall but becomes something personal. Thus, young visitors experience development, self-efficacy, and joy in creative expression.

A program for little art fans and families

The museum targets families and day mothers with children aged three to six years with this format. Participation takes place with the accompaniment of an adult. The meeting point is the foyer on the ground floor. The event lasts about one hour and offers a manageable, child-friendly framework for curious museum beginners.

Conclusion: Shared time with art and imagination

ART FOR TOTS offers families an inspiring afternoon full of wonder, discoveries, and creative moments. Little art fans can see pictures anew, develop their own ideas, and take home their self-created work. Those who want to experience art in a child-friendly way and with all their senses will discover a lovingly designed family offer at the State Museum Schwerin.
