Discover this YouTube channel of the Prado Museum for the little ones.
Since we have had to shelter in our home, there are many international, local museums or art galleries who have quickly endeavored to make the wealth of their material available to all and thus bring us closer to the experiences we used to have.
the Uffizi Gallery, the Van Gogh Museum, the Louvre Museum, the Metropolitan Museum and, especially, our beloved Prado Museum , are just some of those who have surprised with exceptional proposals that help to get through this quarantine, learning and enjoying art.
However, and at least in recent weeks, not all institutions have considered the smallest of the family as one of the groups that needs the most tools to distract themselves and continue training. This is not the case of the Prado Museum, which has made an effort to update your YouTube channel with hilarious audio guides designed entirely for kids (well, also for parents who want to delve into the fascinating world of the most transcendental works of art of all time as a family).
The Prado Museum offers a YouTube channel with explanations of masterpieces.
Among the most outstanding paintings included in this space we can find 'Las Meninas', by Velázquez, 'The Garden of Earthly Delights', by Bosch , 'The Holy Family of the Little Bird', by Murillo, 'The Three Graces', by Rubens and 'The Emperor Charles V on horseback in Mühlberg', by Titian. Some of the videos, such as 'Las Meninas' or 'La Familia de Carlos IV' had been uploaded before, in fact, a few years ago, but in March, due to the state of forty , the Prado team has updated its contents.
The objective is get children to appreciate the different characters in the works in an interactive format, with drawings that narrate historical data, color details or small peculiarities that bring us closer to the meaning of what the painter wanted to convey.
