One of my favourite images of my then 1.5 year old at Saatchi Gallery. The one which causes some really serious judgement and criticism, as some are convinced that toddlers memorise these powerful visual images which can then cause some distress in a long term. Being absolutely honest with you I feel that the headless raw chicken on the kitchen table can cause much more emotional distress to a child... But it's only my opinion... Not a rule!
The fact is that we do take our little one with us. We are those lucky parents who (thanks God!) don't have support from our own parents, so we don't have a choice whether we shall be leaving our son with grandparents, or taking him with us. That means he visited the majority of galleries and museums around UK and Europe.
The fact is that we'd rather have a glance at the exhibition than not attend at all. And you never know - he may like something.
Below at ROCOCO exhibition at Danish Design Museum (more photos here).
And today at Tate Modern. He simply loved running in the vast open spaces of Turbine Hall.
Do you think it's important to take your kids out to such places?
