Visiting Art Galleries on-line

There are some really great galleries that can be visited on-line and that have some great activities for children. Whilst this will never replace the fantastic experience of visting a real art gallery withreal children and exploring real art this is something that could be explored after a visit or as a build up to a visit...or instead of drill and skill computer games. Try these links:

The Tate site could be particularly great to use with an interactive white board. partcularly the art making option.

The Queensland Art Gallery site has some interesting information and games...good for teachers' knowledge development too.

A really new way to make a collage thanks to the Museum of Modern Art in New York!

I hope these can be used to inspire you and your children in some new ways of thinking and making art.
