Arts and Crafts Activities for Kids in HCMC
Published 01 Aug 2026, 09:00 · KiddoGo Editorial · Last updated
Four creative options for preschoolers through pre-teens, including regular classes, nature art and an August camp.
Choose between exploration and structured progression
Some children want a one-off creative project, while others benefit from regular lessons that build drawing, observation and technique over time. Age placement, teaching language, materials and whether the finished work goes home are useful questions before registering.
The four options below are current KiddoGo listings for different ages and commitment levels.
Four creative options
Ask about current programmes in central District 1
Wow Art Center - District 1 offers children's drawing and creative-thinking programmes beside the Ho Chi Minh City Fine Arts Museum.
The centre is currently listed as open Tuesday to Sunday from 08:00 to 17:00. Active class ages, materials, timetable and fees vary by programme and are not published clearly, so contact the centre before visiting.
Try an age-specific beginner class for ages 4 to 6
Saigon Art Drawing Classes Ages 4-6 - Pho Quang introduces drawing, colour, observation and creative expression through 90-minute projects.
A free trial is available. Ask the Phu Nhuan branch for the current age-group slot, class frequency, materials and tuition before enrolling.
Connect art with nature from toddler age
Le Petit Musee Nature Art Classes in District 2 has pathways from roughly ages 1 to 12. The programme links drawing and creative practice with observation of nature.
Group and one-to-one classes are arranged according to teacher availability. Current tuition is not published, and adults may need to participate with the youngest children.
Book an August studio camp for ages 7 to 12
Get Arty Kids Summer Art Camp, August 2026 runs on seven mornings from 4 to 12 August. The first project focuses on designing and building a tree-house adventure, followed by imaginative papier-mache figures.
Sessions run from 09:30 to 12:00 in Thao Dien. English is supported, and the current price is provided by direct enquiry.
Questions to ask the studio
- How is the child placed? Age, confidence and previous experience may all affect the right group.
- Are materials included? Paint, clay, firing, special papers or take-home frames may cost extra.
- Is it a trial, class or full course? Check the commitment before paying.
- What language will the teacher use? Only rely on English support when the studio confirms it for the selected class.
- Can the child take the work home? Larger projects may need drying, firing or later collection.
