Toddler & Early Years Art Classes in Dubai (Ages 4–6)
Play-led, gently guided art classes for little ones aged 4 to 6, at our studio in Al Safa 1, Jumeirah, near Safa Park. Colour, texture, clay and painting that build confidence and fine-motor skills. From AED 180, materials included.
Rated 4.8 out of 5 across 61 Google reviews. For ages 4 to 6.
Starting art young does wonderful things for a child, and it should feel like play. At the International Studio of Art & Galleries (ISOAG), our early-years classes give children aged 4 to 6 a warm, unhurried place to explore colour, shape and texture with their hands, guided every step of the way by experienced facilitators.
This is not a chaotic craft hour, and it is not pressure either. It is the happy middle: real, gentle art teaching designed around how little ones actually learn.
What early years looks like at ISOAG
- Play-led, not pressured, colour mixing, finger and brush painting, simple drawing, clay squishing and texture play.
- Little and often, one-hour sessions with a clear start, a guided activity and a finished piece to take home.
- Fine-motor and confidence, holding a brush, controlling a crayon, making choices and feeling proud of what they made.
- Small groups, so every child gets warmth, patience and individual attention.
- Wellbeing-aware, our teaching is shaped by an art psychotherapist, so sessions build focus and emotional expression as well as skill.
Why parents of little ones choose ISOAG
Most kids' art providers in Dubai start older, never name their teachers and say nothing about wellbeing. ISOAG is a genuine art studio in Al Safa 1, Jumeirah, led by UAE Cultural Golden Visa artist Ruxeena Musthafa, with teaching informed by art psychotherapist Najah Musthafa. Your four-year-old is taught by real, named artists in a proper studio, and everything is published openly, from ages to fees.
As your child grows, they can move up naturally into our kids art classes (ages 6 to 12) and beyond, following a clear path from first strokes to real technique.

I always have a lovely experience at this art studio. The space is very warm and inspiring. The team is kind, patient, and truly supportive. I always feel encouraged the whole time and really enjoyed being creative here. Definitely a place I always come back to! Must join their creative connection community too, not something one should miss!

Frequently asked questions
What age can my child start art classes at ISOAG?
We welcome children from age 4. Our early-years classes are designed for ages 4 to 6, with short, play-led sessions built around little hands, short attention spans and lots of encouragement.
Are the classes messy-play or real art lessons?
Both, in the right balance. Young children learn through touch and play, so there is colour, texture and hands-on making, but every session is gently guided by an experienced facilitator so your child builds real fine-motor skills and confidence, not just mess.
How long is an early-years class?
One hour, which suits this age group well. Sessions are structured with a clear start, a guided activity and a finished piece to take home.
How much do early-years art classes cost?
A single class is AED 180 and a 10-class package is AED 1,500, with sibling discounts. All fees are published in full, with no hidden costs.
Do you provide the materials?
Yes. Paints, paper, brushes, clay and craft materials are all provided, so you can simply drop in and create.
Where are the classes held?
At the ISOAG studio in Al Safa 1, 16th Street, Jumeirah, near Safa Park, Dubai, with parking nearby, easy to reach from across Al Safa, Jumeirah and Al Wasl.
