Probably not new, <em>&#8220;I always say!&#8221;<\/em> you will think, but the proof of our assumptions comes from the University of <strong>Arkansas<\/strong> that has carried out a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fastcompany.com\/3023094\/science-says-art-will-make-your-kids-better-thinkers-and-nicer-people?cid=search\"><strong>thorough research<\/strong><\/a> on a large sample of children exposed to works of art. The results show that those who have visited museums or are used to the observation of works of art develop different <strong>&#8220;soft skills&#8221;<\/strong> including a greater educational memory and critical thinking skills.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Also for these reasons recently the conversation is about the <a href=\"https:\/\/educationcloset.com\/steam\/what-is-steam\/\"><strong>STEAM<\/strong><\/a> approach, where the &#8216;A&#8217; of Art makes the difference; this method represents an upgrade of the previous STEM, integrating the practical and creative aspect of Art with the logical principles of Science, Engineering Technology and Mathematics. The art therefore makes children <em>&#8220;better people&#8221;<\/em>, and there are many initiatives, places and games developed from this theory and to bring children closer to this theme. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.toy-design.com\/kindergarten-educate-beauty\/\"><strong>In this article<\/strong><\/a>, for example, we told you about a nursery designed to educate to beauty; in these last few days in Italy there is also a lot of talk about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.artonauti.it\/\"><strong>Artonauti<\/strong><\/a>, the first art stickers album developed by <strong>WizArt S.r.l<\/strong>. and financed by <strong>Fondazione Cariplo<\/strong>, which encourages children to collect and complete frescoes, canvases and sculptures through an analogical and still much-loved medium, the <strong>stickers<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-5066\" src=\"https:\/\/www.toy-design.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/steam-project-approaching-children-art-3-960x640.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"768\" height=\"512\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.toy-design.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/steam-project-approaching-children-art-3-960x640.jpg 960w, https:\/\/www.toy-design.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/steam-project-approaching-children-art-3-320x213.jpg 320w, https:\/\/www.toy-design.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/steam-project-approaching-children-art-3-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.toy-design.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/steam-project-approaching-children-art-3-640x427.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The &#8220;new&#8221; technologies such as <strong>Augmented Reality<\/strong> and <strong>Virtual Reality<\/strong> have opened up so many learning opportunities within the reach of children.

In this context it seems interesting to tell you about <strong>an analog STEAM toy project with a digital core <\/strong>for approaching children to art: \u2018<strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.museuminabox.org\/\">Museum in a box<\/a><\/strong>\u2019. This English start-up has invented the way to bring <strong>museum<\/strong> collections and specialist knowledge into the hands of children anywhere in the world.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-5068\" src=\"https:\/\/www.toy-design.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/un-progetto-steam-per-avvicinare-bambini-allarte-2-960x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"768\" height=\"461\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.toy-design.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/un-progetto-steam-per-avvicinare-bambini-allarte-2-960x576.jpg 960w, https:\/\/www.toy-design.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/un-progetto-steam-per-avvicinare-bambini-allarte-2-320x192.jpg 320w, https:\/\/www.toy-design.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/un-progetto-steam-per-avvicinare-bambini-allarte-2-768x461.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.toy-design.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/un-progetto-steam-per-avvicinare-bambini-allarte-2-640x384.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>But let&#8217;s take a step back. The project starts from a rather surprising consideration: on average <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/uk-england-london-12214145\"><strong>only 5% of the objects<\/strong><\/a> owned by the museums are exposed to the public. The British Museum, for example, has only 1% of its entire collection on display. Furthermore, not all students have the <strong>opportunity to visit<\/strong> these places and, when they can, they are often and willingly found in front of anonymous installations and <strong>descriptive<\/strong> materials\u00a0not designed\u00a0for them. <strong>Museum in a Box<\/strong> is an acrylic or plywood box that offers <strong>art for children<\/strong>; designed to be sent around the world, occupying the least possible space, it contains a series of objects: 10 <strong>3D printed<\/strong> pieces, interactive postcards, documents and maps. The design principle is that of the <em>&#8216;less screen, more touch&#8217;<\/em>, in fact, despite the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.toy-design.com\/category\/technology\/\"><strong>technology<\/strong><\/a> involved, this box does not have a screen to interact with the user.<\/p>\n[su_youtube url=&#8221;https:\/\/youtu.be\/mvnIS1hjX1o&#8221;]\n<p><strong>An analog STEAM toy project with a digital core <\/strong>is made by a\u00a0box that contains an <strong>electronic brain<\/strong> developed with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.raspberrypi.org\/\"><strong>Raspberry Pi<\/strong><\/a> able to translate the information placed on the objects, through <a href=\"https:\/\/it.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Near_Field_Communication\"><strong>NFC tags<\/strong><\/a>, into a vocal tale. The <strong>interaction<\/strong> aspect between the box and the child is very important because it involves\u00a0him\/her directly in a <strong>sensory<\/strong> activity, including touch in the discovery process through the manipulation of physical objects. Furthermore, the <strong>auditive feedback<\/strong> of the <strong>storytelling<\/strong>\u00a0linked to the object is particularly favorable for understanding and memorizing the concepts learned, also because it is designed, written and narrated specifically for children.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5067\" src=\"https:\/\/www.toy-design.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/un-progetto-steam-per-avvicinare-bambini-allarte-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"768\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.toy-design.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/un-progetto-steam-per-avvicinare-bambini-allarte-1.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.toy-design.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/un-progetto-steam-per-avvicinare-bambini-allarte-1-320x240.jpg 320w, https:\/\/www.toy-design.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/un-progetto-steam-per-avvicinare-bambini-allarte-1-640x480.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>For now, the start-up that invented <strong>an analog STEAM toy project with a digital core<\/strong>\u00a0has worked with several museums and many English schools, but has <strong>partnered<\/strong> with institutions in the museum sector around the world.
