This is for toddlers and for me because I cannot draw to save my life, so I am starting from scratch just like they are.
We think that toddlers must learn to colour pictures, and teach them not to go over lines. But why not just teach them to draw and colour their own pictures as this teaches then both scenarios.
I am crazy about art yet have no ability. I look at all the art posts on steemit and cannot believe the wonderful gift some people have. There are steemit artist who take my breath away, and I thought maybe you could have a child in your class that has the possibility of becoming an artist.
How do we find this out? We start them as toddlers and teach them simple ways to draw. Those who will never be artists will at least learn how to draw some nice pictures that they can enjoy and colour in. Maybe in this process we find a child that does not even need these basics because they were born to draw.
Every child has some gifts, they are not all the same but for this post maybe art is the one to start with.
Children can be fantastic athletes, or skiers or debaters. We will only find this out once we allow them to participate in these activities. So I am going to put a few drawings in that I personally think can get children to make their own drawings, and just maybe become a brilliant artist, just as the other activities can bring other children’s gifts to light.
These pictures are all printable at the source.
Have a lovely Friday and enjoy your weekend.
