Art Class for Kids in Toronto
Fun, Hands-On Art Classes for Young Artists in Midtown Toronto
At SimSim Art Lab, our kids' art classes in Toronto are all about getting little hands busy and big imaginations going.
Children paint, draw, sculpt, build, mix, experiment, and create with all kinds of art materials. Some days they might be covered in paint. Other days they might be shaping clay, exploring textures, or turning a simple idea into something completely their own.
There’s no pressure to make every artwork look the same. Instead, we guide children through creative projects while giving them plenty of room to make choices, try something new, and discover what they can do.
Because at this age, it’s not just about what they make. It’s about the little moments of discovery that happen while they’re making it.
And sometimes, the best part is simply hearing:
“Look what I made!”

Art Classes Where Kids Actually Get to Create
Some children walk into an art class knowing exactly what they want to make. Others see a table full of art materials and immediately want to touch everything. Both are welcome here.
At SimSim Art Lab, children explore art through hands-on projects that encourage them to experiment, make choices, and discover their own creative ideas. We introduce new materials, techniques, colours, and textures, while giving children plenty of room to make each project their own.
A child might start with a simple painting and suddenly decide to add a completely unexpected colour. They might turn a piece of clay into a tiny creature or mix materials that weren't originally part of the plan. That's part of the fun.
What Will My Child Actually Do?
Depending on the project, they may:
- Paint, draw, and explore colour
- Create collages and mixed-media artwork
- Experiment with textures and different materials
- Build, decorate, cut, glue, and transform
- Try new art materials and creative techniques
- Make their own choices throughout the project
- Take home something they created themselves
Two children can start with the same materials and end up with completely different creations.
And that's exactly how it should be.
Why Parents Choose SimSim Art Lab
We know parents are looking for more than something to fill an hour. You want a class your child will enjoy, a teacher who understands young children, and a space where they feel comfortable.
Our classes are:
Designed for young children
Projects are thoughtfully planned for little hands, developing attention spans, and different stages of creativity.
Hands-on and engaging
Children spend their time creating, experimenting, and exploring rather than sitting through long demonstrations.
Small and personal
Smaller groups allow us to give each child encouragement, guidance, and attention.
Full of variety
Children explore different materials, techniques, and creative ideas throughout the season, so there is always something new to discover.
Led by an experienced children's art educator
With more than 14 years of experience working with children through art and creative activities, we know how to keep young artists engaged while helping them feel confident.
What Makes Our Classes Different?
We don't believe young children need to create perfect artwork.
They need the freedom to try.
Our classes are guided, but not overly structured. We introduce the project, demonstrate techniques, and help children get started, while leaving room for their own ideas.
Maybe the tree becomes purple.
Maybe the clay turns into a funny little creature.
Maybe they change their entire idea halfway through.
That's part of the fun. There isn't one "right" way to be creative.
We want children to leave feeling proud of what they made and excited about what they discovered along the way.
Our Studio in Midtown Toronto
Our children's art classes take place at SimSim Art Lab in Midtown Toronto, in the Forest Hill Village area.
Our newly renovated studio is bright, welcoming, and thoughtfully designed for young artists, with a creative space where children can paint, build, experiment, and get a little messy.
We're conveniently located for families in Forest Hill, Deer Park, Yonge & Eglinton, Leaside, Lawrence Park, Rosedale, The Annex, and surrounding Midtown Toronto neighbourhoods.
Art Classes at Your Home or Local Venue
Looking for a creative experience without having to travel to the studio?
We also offer mobile art classes and private group art sessions that bring the SimSim experience to your home, community space, or local venue.
These are available for families and groups in Thornhill, Etobicoke, Markham, Vaughan, and Richmond Hill.
