1 thought on “How do we encourage children to draw?

  1. When I was ten I never realised I could draw, I practiced copying Donald Duck and even traced him which gave me the correct size proportions, which normally was not an acceptable practice in school art lessons.
    Eventually funnily enough after successfully doing comic figures, I would make money from my class mates by doing their portraits…. Now I encourage my grandchildren to trace and copy.
    A relative of mine gets paid good money to do geometric colourful wall designs for businesses, and I consider it a great start for children who can’t seem to get perfection with their drawing & can branch out into plant, animal, boat designs, just through line designs, which never have to look perfect.
