What we'll cover
What you'll take away

授课老师:傅诗婧女士
招生范围:5-9岁
⭐ 我希望孩子们来到这里,不只是“学画画”,更是在观察、提问、发现和创造。一片树叶、一块石头、一张废纸,甚至一个偶然冒出的想法,都可能成为创作的开始。
我相信,每个孩子都拥有与生俱来的好奇心和创造力。艺术课堂不应该只有标准答案,而应该是一个允许尝试、鼓励探索、欢迎不同想法发生的空间。当孩子愿意停下来观察,愿意表达自己的发现,愿意和材料一起玩耍时,他们其实已经在创造属于自己的知识,建构属于自己的学习体验。
因此,课程将结合绘画、拼贴、立体创作、自然探索和故事创作等多种艺术形式,让孩子在观察、探索、合作与创作的过程中,发展想象力、表达能力、观察力和解决问题的能力。
有些课程,孩子会带回自己完成的作品;有些课程,我们会走进自然,与周围的环境展开对话,或与伙伴一起完成一件共同创作。比起每节课都完成一件“漂亮”的作品,我更期待孩子能够带走新的发现、真实的体验,以及愿意不断尝试的勇气。
如果您和孩子也认同这样的艺术理念,欢迎加入我们,一起开启这段充满探索与创造的旅程。
⭐ 说说心里话
我希望这间教室,是一个让孩子可以慢慢来的地方。
在这里,我不会急着告诉孩子应该画什么、怎么画,而是愿意陪着他们一起倾听自己的想法,尊重他们与世界相遇的方式。我相信,每个孩子都有属于自己的表达语言,而艺术能够帮助他们发现并发展这种语言。
如果孩子离开课堂时,不只是带走一幅作品,而是带着更多的好奇、更多的思考、更多的快乐,以及一句:“我还想试试。”那我觉得,这堂课就是有意义的。
Instructor: Ms. Fu, Linda
Recommended for children ages 5–8.
⭐ Course Objective
I hope children come to this class not simply to learn how to draw, but to observe, ask questions, discover, and create. A leaf, a stone, a piece of recycled paper—or even a passing idea—can become the beginning of a new artwork.
I believe every child is born with curiosity and creativity. An art classroom shouldn’t be a place where everyone searches for the same “right answer.” Instead, it should be a space where children feel free to experiment, explore, and express their own ideas. When children slow down to observe, share what they notice, and play with materials, they are already creating knowledge in their own way and building meaningful learning experiences.
Our classes combine drawing, collage, three-dimensional art, nature exploration, and storytelling. Through observing, exploring, collaborating, and creating, children develop their imagination, communication skills, observation, and creative problem-solving abilities.
Some days, children will bring home an artwork they have made. Other days, we may head outdoors to engage with nature or work together on a collaborative project. Rather than focusing on producing a “perfect” piece every class, I hope children leave with new discoveries, meaningful experiences, and the confidence to keep experimenting.
If this philosophy resonates with you and your child, we would love to welcome you on this creative journey.
⭐ Teacher's talk
I hope this classroom is a place where children feel they don’t have to rush.
Rather than telling children what to draw or how to draw it, I want to listen to their ideas, explore alongside them, and respect the unique ways they encounter the world. I believe every child has their own way of expressing themselves, and art can help them discover that voice.
If a child leaves class carrying not only an artwork, but also greater curiosity, deeper thinking, joyful memories, and the feeling of “I want to keep trying,” then I believe our time together has truly been worthwhile.

🌟 中国象棋是中国传统的益智棋类游戏,有着几千年的历史。
中国象棋的棋盘中间有一条 “楚河汉界”,这是它和国际象棋最大的不同之一。它使用 “将、士、象、车、马、炮、兵” 等棋子,摆放在棋盘的交叉点上,而不是格子里。棋子不能像国际象棋那样随意走,每个棋子都有自己独特的走法。
✍️ 下棋时需要动脑思考、提前计划,非常锻炼逻辑能力;中国象棋不仅好玩,还能帮助学生提高专注力和耐心。
🖋️ 通过学习中国象棋,学生可以了解中国文化,体验中华智慧的魅力。
Instructor: Mr. Zhu, Tieyuan
Suitable For:
• Students aged
🌟 Chinese Chess (Xiangqi) is a traditional Chinese strategy game with a history of thousands of years.
The board has a special dividing line called the “River,” which is one of the biggest differences from Western chess. It uses pieces such as the General, Advisor, Elephant, Chariot, Horse, Cannon, and Soldier, which are placed on the intersections of the board rather than in squares. Each piece has its own unique movement rules.
✍️ Playing Chinese chess requires thinking ahead and planning strategies, helping students develop strong logical thinking skills. It is not only fun, but also helps improve focus and patience.
🖋️ By learning Chinese chess, students can explore Chinese culture and experience the wisdom of traditional Chinese thinking.

⭐ Art education has a profound and lasting impact on a child’s life. It comprehensively enhances intelligence, emotional development, social skills, and cognitive abilities, laying a solid foundation for future growth. Art stimulates children’s creativity and imagination and cultivates innovative thinking. Through drawing, children freely combine colors and shapes, awakening originality and enabling them to approach problem-solving with greater flexibility in the future. It also helps children expand their imaginative space, learn to transform abstract concepts into concrete forms, and strengthen both logical and divergent thinking.
1. Flexible course design
A child’s interest is the most precious gift. Maintaining interest and creativity is therefore essential. In teaching, art theory is delivered in a simple and engaging way. The curriculum flexibly integrates fundamental art skills with creative expression and focuses on nurturing each child’s individual strengths. Handcraft activities are also incorporated to enhance fun and engagement, allowing children to learn joyfully.
2. Building students’ self-confidence
Art is an important tool for children to express their inner world. Using colors and lines to convey emotions—such as joy or frustration—helps relieve anxiety and supports mental well-being. The sense of achievement gained from completing artwork encourages children to present themselves more confidently and develop a positive attitude toward life.
3. Encouraging students to share their work and improve communication skills
By sharing their creative process, children learn to describe their ideas through artistic language, which enhances expression and interpersonal skills.
4. Enhancing cognitive abilities and observation skills
Art training promotes multi-dimensional brain development and improves focus and concentration.
5. Cultivating aesthetic awareness
Exposure to diverse art styles helps children become more sensitive to beauty and better appreciate it in everyday life.
