SmARTkids Fine Art Site

SmARTkids is a fine art site created for kids ages 7-12 by the Smart Museum of Art at the University of Chicago.  This is a great site for kids and parents to investigate together, or for just turning kids loose to explore and play.  Through structured and open-ended activities, kids can look at, think about, and respond creatively to art.  Activities on this site include visiting a virtual artist’s studio, exploring photography, oil painting, sculpture and pottery, an “art detective” game, and a glossary of important art terms.  An “Artwork of the Month” feature allows students a more in-depth study of a particular artwork as well as an archive of previously featured works.  The "sketchbook" feature allows kids to respond in writing to thought-provoking questions and even print out their responses.  Kids will enjoy navigating their way through the sea of activities on this comprehensive fine art site!
