Barberini Kid guides between the ages of ten and sixteen present their favorite pictures from the collection. They explain why Monet was so fond of painting grainstacks, why he and his artist friends painted outdoors in the wind and rain, why they didn’t like the color black, why people first made fun of their painting style before they became famous, and much more!

Do you like to play outdoors too? The Impressionists preferred painting outdoors at all times of the day and in all seasons, in meadows, fields, and forests, near the river, and by the sea. Together we will look at Impressionist paintings on the large media wall in the auditorium and learn about which colors they liked to use and how they reproduced light, water, wind, clouds, and flowers. For children between five and twelve.

Experience art with your baby. Following an introductory lecture in the auditorium, parents with babies (up to one year old) can engage in conversation about art with a guide in a relaxed atmosphere. Baby carriages are allowed in the auditorium.

The free Barberini App includes a special audio guide for children, which allows them to experience the museum in a completely different way. New stories, exciting ideas, and tricky challenges make a visit to the museum exciting for young visitors. The app also includes a children's accompanying tour for adults so that families can walk together from picture to picture.

Our media library includes a wide range of ideas and materials for parents and teachers, ranging from handicraft instructions and an encyclopedia of artists to role-playing and a writing lab – all designed to help you explore the current exhibition together with your children or pupils. All materials are available for free download.
