The young pupils of Turkish pre-school Vilayetler Hizmetler Birligi Kindergarten have proved that age doesn’t matter when it comes to art or record-breaking!

400 kids and their teachers worked together to create the world’s Largest fabric marbling painting in Antakya, Hatay and the design is spectacular.

Measuring a huge 50 m (164.042 ft) in length and 2 m (6.56168 ft) in width, the children beat the previous record setting painting that was 44.46 m (145.87 ft) x 1.72 m (5.64 ft), also created in Turkey but back in 2013.

The school organised the event to show the importance of art education for kids.

Marbling involves creating an image on the surface of a liquid and then transferring it onto a piece of fabric.

The technique creates beautiful patterns, especially when lots of bright colours are used.
