The NGAkids Art Zone app contains eight interactive activities inspired by works in the collection of the National Gallery of Art, plus a sketchbook for freehand drawing and a personal exhibition space where users can save and display art created with the program. The child-friendly interface, easy-to-use tools, and the overarching emphasis on discovery, careful looking, and artistic self-expression make the NGAkids app educational and fun for the whole family.

Each activity offers various levels of complexity, making the app suitable for all age groups. It is optimized for ages 9 through 11, but younger children will find it easy to use at an introductory level. Teens and adults also will find the program entertaining and artistically motivating.

NGAkids activities are designed for children to use in a recreational, nonacademic context. They are not art lessons, although our programs are extremely popular in schools and are often used as an adjunct to the traditional curriculum. The low-key activities preserve a sense of quiet exploration that encourages artistic expression and creativity. This absorbing, self-directed interaction has a long-term impact. The fact that children are encouraged to figure out how things work and to mentor each other adds a unique dimension to the experience, one that engenders a personal connection to art that often lasts a lifetime.

SPECIAL FEATURES
The NGAkids app provides an immersive experience as children visit a virtual art museum and explore a variety of works spanning more than 300 years of art history. High-resolution graphics, careful attention to detail, and exposure to a variety of subjects, painting styles, and techniques help convey an authentic understanding of the artistic process and reinforce their familiarity with the fundamental elements of art. Although these are not art games in the traditional sense, unexpected animation and surprising audio features enliven the program and help make learning fun for all ages.

There are 10 sections to explore:

* Portrait
* Landscape
* Seascape
* Still Life
* Action Painting
* Exploring Color
* Color Field
* Collage
* Sketchbook
* My Art Gallery

Works by a wide range of artists-including Edward Hicks, Fitz Henry Lane, Berthe Morisot, Claude Monet, Vincent van Gogh, Mark Rothko, Josef Albers, and Robert Rauschenberg, along with several anonymous American naive painters-serve as inspirational models.

The National Gallery of Art is committed to producing quality children's programming that provides informative, entertaining, and age-appropriate content for kids of all ages. We hope you and your children enjoy the NGAkids app, and we invite you to plan an in-person visit to the Gallery, where many of the original works of art that inspired this program are on display.

This app has been updated by Apple to display the Apple Watch app icon.

Bug fix for dancing George Washington

Good but the dancing...

This is a very good app! My favorite part is importing pictures and still life. Only thing - please do different dancing because the dancing is SO WEIRD !

This app is so cursed

So our art teacher made us use this in art class and it was honestly fine. But the little doll changeling thing in the app is Freaking Creepy. There is also this other thing in the build a landscape game where you can spawn George Washington and if you press play he will proceed to do a dance. Also the dance looks more like he's having a seizure and breaking his legs. The dance in self portrait is also creepy. Fix the cursed elements of this app and all will be cool. THANKS.

Great fun but crashes all the time

Parts of this app are fun and easy to use, other sections crash the app repeatedly. Have to delete app and reinstall to use those sections, then the next time it crashes again, delete again, etc. developers, PLEASE fix this! It's too good an app to let this frustration spoil the fun.

The developer, National Gallery of Art, Washington, has not provided details about its privacy practices and handling of data to Apple. For more information, see the developer's privacy policy.

No Details Provided

The developer will be required to provide privacy details when they submit their next app update.

In the current situation of the widespread transmission of COVID-19, the hands of educators are tied. Knowing schools could be the first places to shut down, we're waiting to see what's expected of us. Will schools close? What happens if my school closes? Do I need to prepare for virtual learning? What if my students don't have access to the internet or technology? How do I teach when students have limited access to art materials at home?

These are all questions that have probably been on the top of your mind in recent weeks. We don't have the answers to all of these things, but we do know that trying to keep some normalcy in the routines of the art room at home is going to be a challenge.

The approach to this situation is not going to be one-size-fits-all. Every single art teacher has a unique situation and different student body they are trying to reach. Keeping that in mind, you, as the educator, will have to develop ways to plan and facilitate learning in a way that meets your specific situation. To help ease the pain of trying to figure out what to teach to your students at home, we've created a list of ideas to help inspire your planning. As you look at these ideas, keep in mind the circumstances of your students, and make adaptations to serve your students best.
Have all your curriculum resources available from anywhere: FLEX Curriculum
Alternate Paint Ideas

Unfortunately, many students will not have access to paint at home. Consider using this as a time for exploration to introduce students to new types of paint. Challenge students to think about what natural materials they might have, much like the people creating might have used. Try some of these homemade paint options:

Found Object Ideas

Found object artmaking is a medium that has been explored by artists throughout the ages. Let your students' creativity flow by creating with the objects they have around them.

Here is a list of found objects that might help inspire your students. Try one of these found object ideas:

3-D Lesson Ideas

Planning activities and lessons for 3-D classes like ceramics and sculpture might present an extra challenge. It won't be very easy to truly emulate the happenings of a ceramics class without clay at home. Maybe, you'll get lucky, and you can send each student home with a pound of clay, but this won't be the case for everyone. Instead, get creative and keep it simple. Here are some ideas to consider.

Create temporary sculptures with household items. Have your students photograph them, and use them as a drawing inspiration. When you eventually get back to the classroom, students can recreate their sculptures with other materials.

Have your students create stop-motion videos using clay-like material. This can be done with clay, play-doh, or even cookie dough.

Paper Pottery

Here are some additional clay recipes your students can try to make their own homemade clay:
Lessons with Limited Supplies

When it comes to limited supplies, drawing is going to be the best way to have our students find success. They can simply draw with the materials they have, any type of mark-making and paper will do the trick.

Use these drawing prompts to continue your students' drawing skills.

Observational Drawing

Now is the perfect time to refine observational drawing skills. To encourage your students to take note of the world around them, encourage them to participate in the "View From My Day " drawing challenge.
Other Drawing Activities:
Additional Art Challenges to Engage Your Students

Use and adapt these art challenges to fit the needs of your students.

These lists are just a few ideas to help you create lessons or art from home. Just as in times of uncertainty, there are no silver bullets or definitive answers, but there are often options. As art educators, you do have options at your fingertips; at AOEU, we are here to help you find them.
What are your go-to options when schools close? How do your students respond with a variety or lack of options?

Learn about Matisse and create artwork like him!

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Learn how to paint like Matisse by making a simple still life, adding lots of patterns, and then covering with pretty watercolors.

Henri Matisse was famous for his use of color in his paintings. In fact, he and Picasso (who were friends for a bit) were considered the best in the biz in their time.

In this simple watercolor resist project, students can not only learn a bit about the art history, they can also make use of four Elements of Art. They will need to use LINES to draw their still life SHAPES, add crayon lines with TEXTURE, and fill with bright COLORS. Four simple words, but they add so much to students art vocabulary, if they can say, "I like the patterns and texture in this work of art" instead of "I like this painting because it is pretty."

MATERIALS

* Draw like Matisse PDF (click to download)
* Watercolor paper
* Crayons
* Liquid watercolor paint

DIRECTIONS

Time needed: 1 hour.
