I have really got to sit down this summer and learn about all the new things Google is doing and has available. I keep hearing about Google docs, Google earth, Google photos... they have it all covered. You can check out the many options available to you at THIS LINK. I think the only one I have used is Google maps which shows our home almost TOO close for comfort. :)
Anyway, last weekend my husband and I had breakfast with a dear friend who told us about the Google Art Project. Thanks, Dave. This is a wonderful site to virtually visit art museums around the world. It is especially nice because in many of them (some I have been to myself), photos are not allowed. So sit back, grab a cup of coffee (also not generally allowed in museums) and enjoy. Go to THIS LINK to start your visit and have fun.
Some of the museums you can "tour" are:
- State Hermitage Museum, St. Petersburg
- Feer Gallery of Art, Washington, C
- Van Gogh Museum, Amsterdam, Netherlands
- Museo Reina Sofia, Madrid, Spain
- State Tretyakov Gallery, Moscow, Russia
- Museum Kampa, Prague
This is an excellent resource for homeschoolers as well as the public or private school classroom.
