View full detailsWhilst the world of books itself is known to help transport its readers to far-away lands, different times, and places; art books can do all that and more. Books across the creative fields of art, photography, design, and contemporary culture can not only help transport readers to wonderful places but also help them stir up their creativity and thought processes.
Art books for kids especially can play a crucial role in a child’s cognitive development as these books are designed to trigger a child’s imagination.
Illustrated books with bold, colourful drawings and immersive artsy pages of the artist’s work. Tales told through artful illustrations and picture books about art can prompt children to create art of their own. Books that take young readers through art-making processes and the development of artsy techniques. Books filled with different shapes, layers of colours, and animated figures.
Books like How colour works have been carefully curated for kids aged 5+. Exploring the science of colours, the book poses some profoundly interesting questions to kids triggering their creative thought processes. Questions like, why is the sky blue? Why is the night black? Why is the snow white? How do the eyes and brain create colours? Marrying magical illustrations with accessible language, these engaging art books are perfect for young readers.
If you are a parent looking to introduce your child to the creative realms then art books for 8-year-olds and beyond can be a perfect introduction for your child to the world of art. Books that encourage your kids to look closely, think deeply, and use their imagination to understand why artists choose to create the work they do. How to Talk to Children About Art is an art book for adults, that tells you how to talk about art to children in a simplified language that they will understand. The book will teach you how to help your kids enjoy paintings as diverse as renaissance religious paintings, impressionist portraits, or modernist works as complex as Picasso. Simplifying art appreciation, this book will help your kids understand that the simplest of questions can be most pertinent. Overall, this is just the book you need to stimulate your child’s interest in art.
Another children’s art book that is worthy of a spot on your kid’s bookshelf is Fantastically Great Women Artists and Their Stories by Ms Kate Pankhurst. Whilst the works of several art giants like Van Gogh, Leonardo’s iconic Mona Lisa or Andy Warhol’s iconic Marilyn have all been adapted to appeal to children, it is also important to introduce your child to the artworks of women artists. In this book, Kate Pankhurst, does precisely that and tells the fascinating stories of some of history's most talented modern female artists. The book is a celebration of some of the famous women artists whose creativity and dreams have made a mark on the world. The perfect way to introduce your child to different artists, their various perspectives, and the causes they voiced through their artwork.
