New interactive site uses game strategy to involve kids in art. What if the J. Paul Getty Museum's paintings were in pieces, and it was up to kids to put them back together again? Or if someone switched the details on the artworks, and kids had to find the changes? That's the world of GettyGames, the J. Paul Getty Museum's newly launched web feature that uses game strategies to help kids focus on art.

Artsonia is the world's largest kids art museum online. It's a free, educational site where parents and teachers can upload the artwork done by kids and share their artwork with friends and family. There is no cost to participate, no minimum number of artwork required and any parent or teacher can do it! Family members can join a fan club, leave comments for the artist and purchase keepsakes imprinted with the child's artwork. It's fun, education, easy and everyone is welcome to participate!

The site integrates art with science and social studies to teach recycling concepts in a fun and entertaining way. Visitors learn how to make art using easy to obtain solid waste as a source of free materials. Some of the activities include drawing, painting, sculpture, collage, papier-maché, marbling and crafts. A feature called the Badge Matcher helps Brownies, Girl Scouts and their leaders quickly locate art activities that help satisfy badge requirements.
