Overview

An important motto to think about when drawing with children is to focus on the process, not the product. Drawing skills will naturally develop at your own child’s pace as they learn and practice.

Tips & Tricks

• Avoid limiting colouring to colouring book activities or outlining models. By providing exposure to a blank piece of paper and a variety of drawing tools, you will foster their natural creativity.

• It is common for children to start by drawing people with just a head and two legs. They will continue developing by drawing what they know, rather than what they see, and therefore as time progresses and they learn their body parts, other details of the person will emerge.
