Teach Your Child Their Colors Using Masterpieces

Is your child learning their colors? Why not show them some master examples on your next visit to the museum. There are also large varieties of art history books for both children and adults that are of great interest. Youngsters under one year of age respond really well to the works of the Abstract Expressionsists. Older children may also enjoy looking at the Fauve, contemporary Haitian, Italian Renaissance and French Impressionist artists. These paintings are from the European painting collection at the Metropolitan Museum of art in New York.
