In today’s world of digital distractions, the thought of taking your kids to an art gallery and making them enjoy it might seem a thankless and impossible challenge. So how can we make art fun and get the kids involved?
Let your children enjoy art on their own terms
Who said that walking around a gallery had to be slow and methodical, stopping to look at every picture?
While it might sound strange, the particular work of art is simply not important. What really matters is that children build a connection with art, for whatever reason. To encourage this, you can make it into a game, either with or without a reward, with simple quizzes for older children such as, “Who can guess the artist?” or, “Who can identify the period it was made?”
Don’t spend too long in the gallery
In today’s fast-paced world, where screen time is a fact of life, children’s minds deal in quick impressions rather than in-depth studies. Besides, children naturally have shorter attention spans (长度) than adults.

Pick a good container.
You can buy pre-filled first aid kits, and you can also buy empty first aid kit containers. One good option is a large, translucent (半透明的), or flexible plastic container.

Teach your family about the kit.
Make sure everyone in your home who is old enough to understand the function of a first aid kit knows its location and when to fetch it.
