Discover botany with brush, paint, and microscope
In this four-day family and vacation offer, children aged ten and over dive into the fascinating connection between art and natural science. In the watercolor course at the workshop of the Ernst-Abbe-Library Jena, they create their own nature pictures while natural objects under the microscope reveal new details.
Watercolor Painting Meets Natural Research
The children learn various watercolor painting techniques and creatively implement nature motifs. Colors, shapes, and fine structures from the plant world provide exciting inspirations for their own designs. Thus, the workshop combines creative work with a child-friendly learning experience around botany.
Astonish, Observe, and Create
Looking through the microscope opens a new perspective on natural objects. Small structures, patterns, and shapes become visible and stimulate curiosity. This combination of observation, discovery, and painting strengthens concentration, imagination, and joy in independent creation.
Age-Appropriate and Well Prepared
The offer is aimed at children from ten years and is led by Eva Schimek. The required materials are provided. Working in the workshop creates a protected environment for shared learning, creative experimentation, and focused development of personal ideas.
Admission and Registration
The course is free of charge and registration is required. The workshop is already fully booked. Families thus find an inspiring vacation program that combines children's laughter, learning fun, and shared time with a special nature experience.
Conclusion: A Creative Vacation Experience for Curious Children
The watercolor course shows how exciting nature can be under the microscope and on paper. Children experience botany with all their senses, develop their artistic skills, and take home self-created impressions from the plant world.
