How do Irvine families choose between Miro, Spring Paddy and Picasso?
By age. Miro Class takes ages 3 to 4 and is the earliest entry into the EDUBUS creativity system. Spring Paddy, ages 4 to 6, is about turning ideas into visible things. Picasso Class, ages 6 to 8, moves a child from scribbling to conscious creation. EDUBUS runs its in-person sections from its Irvine studio, alongside an online section.
Is age 3 too early for an art class?
Miro Class is built for exactly that age. The work at this stage is creativity in its most basic form, so the goal is willingness to start and to express something, not technique. The shift toward deliberate, considered making happens later, in Picasso Class.
How many lessons does an Irvine term include?
Regular terms run 12 lessons. Summer adds shorter options: Little Artists Camp for grades K to 2, weekdays with 5 to 8 students, and the Picasso Masterclass and Secrets of 3D Thinking for ages 4 to 7, offered in two-week sessions.
How do the summer camps differ from regular terms?
They are shorter and more concentrated. Little Artists Camp meets Monday through Friday with 5 to 8 students and builds drawing skill and creative thinking together, while the Picasso Masterclass and Secrets of 3D Thinking run two weeks each, with a choice of morning or afternoon groups.
What comes next for Irvine students after these classes?
The path continues by age. At 8 to 10, students can move to Oil Painting, their first encounter with formal materials, or to Picture Book Design, which turns a story into a bound book. From age 8 to 12, Digital Arts is the digital drawing track.
