Hands-On Art

TOUCH THE ART BOOKS - SET OF 4


At a museum, all you hear is "DON'T TOUCH!" Well, those days are over with these interactive "Touch The Art" books. Each book features famous works of art that have fun commentary, tactile materials and interactive components. Learning about art doesn't get more hands-on than this. A great way to introduce kids to the art world without dragging them to a museum. The set includes Brush Mona Lisa's Hair (art from the masters of the Renaissance to the baroque), Feed Matisse's Fish (modern art from the 20th century, Make Van Gogh's Bed (impressionists and artists from the late 19th century), and Pop Warhol's Top (pop art from the 20th century). Sold as a set of four. Manufactured in Thailand.

I like the books and think my nephew will enjoy them, I wish the parts to touch were a little more apparent and interesting. A great way to introduce art to children.

I love these books! They are great for babies/toddlers. The kids love the touch/feel/lift the flap aspect, and they are being exposed to wonderful art at the same time. Highly recommend.

Comments about TOUCH THE ART BOOKS - SET OF 4:

Love, love, love these books. They are fun and quirky. We put the children to bed with classical music so it makes sense to teach them about the other classics. Our children select these books and love touching the objects as requested in the picture tales. Novel idea for children or adults.

Cute books - definitely worth it.

Comments about TOUCH THE ART BOOKS - SET OF 4:

To get 4 board books at the book store, you would pay close to the same amount, but these have tactile famous works of art to introduce my kids to classics in a fun way. I love them and am happy to know that my kids will have experience with high art before they even realize what high art is. So far, only one textural item (the "top" from Andy Warhol's soup can) has been torn off and that one seemed easy to rip off to begin with. All other textures feel securely in place or are not made of rippable material.
