What’s Included:
Coming to the Orsay Museum with kids can sometimes be challenging. At Meet the Locals, we like challenges and have decided to help parents. With no queue to test your children’s patience, a visit adapted to their interests and an exciting arty quiz to solve, we guarantee an Orsay kids tour that will without a doubt thrill both kids and parents!
With the help of an art historian specially trained to provide dynamic, child-oriented visits, you will be invited on a fantastic journey through Impressionism. Your kids’ skills of observation will be challenged by the riddles included in their activity booklets. The aim is to help them understand the sources of Impressionism and learn about major painters in a playful manner.
But first, let’s observe the building itself. Formerly a train station, which only ran between 1900 and 1939, the Orsay museum is now home to thousands of works of art. Your kids will have a chance to admire the original architecture of the museum and will have to look for traces of the old train station.

Our visit will focus on Impressionism and the influence it had on modern art in the 19th and 20th centuries. We will take in the works of masters: Monet, Degas, Manet, and others. Your expert, kid-friendly guide will engage your kids with anecdotes about these famous painters and will encourage them to look closely at their masterpieces. With their activity booklets, your children will have an amazing tool that will show them how to recognize the technique and style of each artist.
But where’s the fun you might say? Well thanks to riddles and games of observation, discovering works of art will have never been so amusing for your children!
Your little art enthusiasts will also learn why Impressionism was so important at the time it appeared and how it broke with existing conventions. History and techniques of the Impressionist movement will no longer bear any secrets from your family.
But our art quest is not over. Impressionism gave birth to other artistic movements such as Pointillism, Synthetism, Nabis, etc. Your children will also get to admire the art of Van Gogh and Gauguin, two talented (and highly colorful!) modern painters.
By the end of the tour, your children will have traveled through art without boredom! They will have learned to decrypt art while having fun. Thanks to our kids expert and their sense of observation, they will become true art experts!
And if you want to discover more about Impressionism, have a look at our family experience that will drive you to Giverny, the mecca of Impressionism lovers.
