Spark the imagination, generate new ideas, and share thoughts in these lively online sessions about art for children aged 3 – 5 years and their parents and carers. In each session, children discover works of art from the NGV Collection and watch a demonstration of an art-making activity that can be made at home or school using everyday materials.
This activity is suitable to join from home, kindergarten or playgroup. Groups are welcome to attend. Participation in the program’s chat function is encouraged. For privacy, participant microphones and cameras will be turned off.

Young children journey back in time to 3100 BCE to the land of ancient Egypt, inspired by NGV’s latest children’s exhibition Ancient Egypt for Kids. Find out about the lives of the ancient Egyptian people, life along the Nile River and the beautiful objects they made for eternity.
This exploration of ancient times will be followed by a demonstration of a creative activity, inviting children to complete a landscape with their drawings of animals that once lived along the Nile River.
