Every Sunday, kids can join an artistic workshop organised by the Escola Traç de Barcelona at the MEAM (Museu Europeu d’Art Modern). The weekly sessions, for ages 5 to 12 years, offer a fun way for children to make the most out of the works on exhibit.  From the surreallism of Picasso to the use of camouflage by both humans and animals, kids can learn about different techniques while visiting some of the works on display from the 21st and 20th century. Each child will then get the opportunity to create their own piece of art.  The MEAM is located in the beautiful Palau Gomis, in the back streets of the Barrio del Born and displays work from figurative artists. Parents can take a tour with a discount for Kids in Barcelona visitors!...see workshop details

La Caseta in Gràcia has decided that it is not only kids that need to learn about family life but that their parents could benefit from some extra lessons too!  From February, the play centre and alternative pre-school is running a series of Saturday sessions aimed at parents and carers for children aged 0-6 years old.  The informal classes cover a range of topics from sibling conflict to quality playtime and how to make a super Carnival costume.  Education professionals, psychologists and creative course-leaders will be particpating in the group sessions that will run until the end of April.
