LOVE….what a perfect excuse to teach children about this wonderful feeling, but via the actually quite cheesy Valentine’s day?!
In terms of artists, Jim Dine and his heart paintings, Klimt and his famous golden Kiss, and LOVE prints are going to help the children put this theme into a context of actual art history…
