Does anyone know where toddlers (for a 2 year old in this case) can take classes? there is a lovely art school near my house in East Helsinki but its for 4 years+. I know I can get out the crayons and the finger paint myself, but I was just looking for a nice group for her to go that would be fun and have someone show her more imaginitive things that I can't think of!

When my daughter that age I wasn't able to find any formal classes in anything other than Jumppa. Most classes in Finland start at three. By the way what is the art school in eastern helsinki that you were talking about? My daughter in four and would really enjoy an art class!

There's one place on Kristianankatu that seems to do childrens art.

Hi Isaluba
The art school I was talking about is in Roihuvuori: http://www.helsinginkuvataidekoulu.com, its in a really beautiful building overlooking the sea. What/where is this Jumppa you mention?

The Jumppa I was talking about is touhis.net they give classes all over eastern helsinki in the public gyms for all different age groups. the younger kids ( ie under three) I think go with their parent though I am not sure.
