With the help of GeeGuides, you too can become an art expert. Enjoy exploring art throughout history by seeing the many ways it can be used to tell a story, capture an emotion, or depict a moment in time. You and your child will love our animated Art Guides, Furnace, Tickles and Ruby, and will be amazed at how easy the program is to use and navigate.

Your child remains engaged in the program, motivated by informative and entertaining animation, hands-on interactivities, incentives, rewards, and hours of traditional art and digital painting activities designed for creative exploration.

All these elements, and especially our fun, furry and feathered Art Guides, will keep your child emotionally connected, motivated to learn, and primed to utilize art as a form of expression. You can feel confident with how your child is using the home computer, and you too will gain the knowledge you need to discuss art with your child in a meaningful way.

The GeeGuides program is built from the ground-up for Web delivery. It makes innovative use of the latest technologies in order to engage children in the content and spark within them a passion for art. If your child enjoys making crafts at home or playing with various media, GeeGuides is a great extension to that interest by offering a comprehensive visual arts education that helps your child learn how to reason about art. In doing so, GeeGuides’ art education lends to the development of crucial cognitive skills, creativity, social understanding and many other personal and social skills, which will help them be more productive now and in the future workforce.

Explore the Lesson Demo with your child, and you will see by their reaction how this program really does everything we say. GeeGuides makes important cross-curricular links, has thorough lesson plans, hours of digital and traditional art activities, and much more! So, whether you are looking for a great after-school activity or for something educational for your child to do during the summer, GeeGuides is the answer.

"I think the GeeGuides videos are simply terrific. When those of us in the Corel Marketing Department saw the Corel Painter Essentials 3 GeeGuides video for the first time, we were agape at how well it was put together."
