Baby Painting

Explore colours with the youngest ones

Malmö

Come and paint with your baby in our Workshop! We believe that even small babies should get a chance to get acquainted with artistic expressions and paint with the whole body. We can promise lots of laughter and mess!

This activity is aimed at the youngest ones and their adult companions. We create together and paint with organic edible colors made from buckwheat, turmeric, beetroot, wheatgrass and lingonberry. The babies can discover and explore the colors with both sight, touch, and taste.

Important information

• Bring a towel and a change of clothes, both for you and your baby. Stains of turmeric can be difficult to remove. There’s running water in the Workshop.

• Baby painting requires full focus from you as an adult, as it can become slippery with a lot of colour. You have full responsibilty for your baby during the activity.
