Art in Pajamas
Painting courses for children and families
On Saturday mornings, our studio becomes a colourful meeting place for young artists and their parents.
Creative family adventures at the weekend
Boredom? Not with us. In our "Picasso in pyjamas" sessions for children aged six to twelve, they paint, blot and create art together with their parents. Very relaxed, very colourful - and lots of fun. Whether with or without painting experience - here children (and parents!) can let off steam creatively and start the Saturday together.
Variety guaranteed! Each session brings a new creative adventure with colour, clay or collage.
Parents can join in and create a unique work of art together with their children.
There's a fresh smoothie for everyone to start with - and parents can treat themselves to something extra at the Creative Café if they wish.
Colourful family moments in the studio
Now new: Picasso in Pajamas on Saturday mornings
Paint, sculpt and discover together: our popular children's painting courses and ceramics programmes are now also available at the weekend - with our new format "Picasso in Pyjamas" and "Michelangelo in Pyjamas"!
Whether with brushes or clay - children aged 6 to 12 can experience creative adventures here, in which parents can also take part. Together they create colourful pictures, funny sculptures and lots of good humour.
When? Every Saturday from 10:15 to 12:15
Where? In our PIE Kids creative room - fully equipped, cosy and colourful.
The best thing is that every child receives a fresh smoothie as a welcome drink - and parents can treat themselves to a hot drink in the Creative Café while they create works of art together. No prior knowledge required - just a desire for colour, shape and family time.
"Little Brushes" daily painting course for children aged 6-12 years
In our "Little Brushes" course, children immerse themselves in exciting art projects - and learn new techniques and forms of expression along the way.
Learning is not done according to a plan, but with the joy of doing. Whether beginner or experienced creative mind - every child is welcome!
The course is held in English and German so that everyone can follow along. The children work at their own pace, try out new materials and playfully develop their own style.
With loving guidance, lots of freedom - and lots of colour.

What is the plan for the children's painting courses?
At Paint It Easy, all children have the opportunity to work on their own art and craft projects and/or sign up for workshops. Our art teachers prepare the courses and cater to the children's wishes and interests. The kids can familiarise themselves with different tools and techniques.
The workshops prepared by our teachers cater to the children's interests and wishes and offer them the opportunity to learn about specific tools or techniques - from watercolour painting to anything children can imagine. To ensure that no one is left behind, the children are guided and supported by not just one, but two of our art teachers.
Creativity with heart
At PIE Kids, everything revolves around creativity, imagination and, of course, lots of fun! Our team consists of passionate artists and creative minds who love to accompany children in their artistic development.
