“Bend the tree when it is young, teach the child when they are little.” Igniting a passion for art, especially drawing, in preschoolers is incredibly important. Drawing not only helps children develop fine motor skills but also opens a door to a rich, colorful world of imagination. So, how can we make drawing activities fun and effective? Let’s explore with “TUỔI THƠ”!
Kindergarten Drawing: A Colorful World Through Children’s Eyes
Drawing is a delightful art activity where children freely express their thoughts, emotions, and observations about the world around them. From initial scribbles, they gradually create vivid, colorful pictures that reflect their unique personalities. Ms. Nguyen Thi Hoa, a lecturer at the Central Pedagogical College, emphasizes the importance of encouraging children’s creativity through drawing activities in her book “Art for Preschoolers.”
Benefits of Drawing for Kindergarten Children
Drawing is more than just a recreational game; it brings many practical benefits to a child’s holistic development. It helps children train their hand dexterity, develop observation skills, logical thinking, and imagination. Furthermore, drawing helps children express emotions, relieve stress, and build self-confidence. They can draw about things they love, memorable moments, or dreams for the future. Like the saying “old bamboo produces new shoots,” drawing activities help nurture artistic talents from a young age.
Some Suggestions for Kindergarten Drawing Activities
To make drawing activities effective and engaging for children, parents and teachers can apply some of the following suggestions:
- Prepare sufficient supplies: Drawing paper, colored pencils, crayons, watercolors… should be diverse to let children unleash their creativity.
- Create a comfortable space: A cool, quiet space will help children concentrate better.
- Encourage children to express themselves freely: Do not be restrictive or impose ideas on children.
- Praise and encourage: Words of praise will help children become more confident and love drawing activities.
I remember once witnessing a 4-year-old girl named My, who was very shy and quiet. But when she participated in drawing activities, she became much more active and cheerful. She drew her family with naive but loving strokes. Ms. Tran Thi Lan, a preschool education expert in Hanoi, shared in her book “Nurturing Children’s Souls”: “Drawing not only helps children develop artistic abilities but also helps them express emotions and connect with the world around them.”
