Madhubani Painting Classes for Kids in Sweden
Madhubani, taught with its rules intact
Madhubani is not a decorative style you can approximate. It has rules — the double outline, the absence of empty space, the specific motifs for fish, bamboo, sun and the kohbar marriage panel, each carrying a meaning. Taught properly it is one of the best line-discipline exercises a child can do, and it comes with several centuries of Mithila behind it.

Madhubani, taught with its rules intact
Search results are full of "Madhubani for kids" worksheets that are really colouring pages with a border. We teach the actual grammar of the form: how the fill patterns work, why the space is filled, what each motif means, and how a panel is composed. Children finish able to make a Madhubani painting, not a picture that resembles one.
Sweden’s Indian community has grown fast in the last fifteen years, mostly engineers and researchers in Stockholm, Gothenburg and Malmö. Families tell us the same thing about the long Swedish winter: the afternoons go dark early, and a fixed, warm indoor routine in the evening matters more here than it would at home.

Arts & Painting runs in person at our arts studio in Jayanagar, Bengaluru, and, like every class of ours, at our HSR Layout centre, 243, 16th Main Road, Sector 3, HSR Layout, Bengaluru 560102. Both use the same mentors and the same curriculum as the online batches. Families outside Bengaluru take the online batches, which cover the identical curriculum.
Three simple steps to begin
1. Tell us about your child
Call or WhatsApp us and say where your child is starting from. For madhubani painting classes for kids that matters — the mentor pitches the first class to what they can already do.
2. Personal guidance from a mentor
A real, live class, not a sales call. The mentor works with your child for the full session and then tells you honestly whether this is the right class of ours for them.
3. Pick a slot that survives the school week
We place your child in a batch built for CET. Weekday 5:00 to 7:00 PM Swedish time and Saturday mornings.
