How to encourage children to draw.

Should be expressed freely and not as an obligation.

It is important to respect the spontaneity and naturalness of children. In these early stages of the drawings it should not correct them or give them rules and drawing techniques. In addition to the pencil, the child can draw and paint with crayon, markers, and even finger painting. The children's art should be expressed freely and not an obligation. Do not stifle creativity in your child. Censorship would only limit their creativity at this time.

Almost all children's ideas can be expressed in their drawings. Graphic and visual activities represent a real language to children. Teach them to develop their motor skills, give them more freedom of expression and enrich your world. The contact with different materials will stimulate your ideas and expression.
The material and techniqueWhen a child's special interest in drawing can guide you about some techniques, offering different materials for the test. The technique, as regards the instrumental domain, need not be taught. It comes with practice and experience. A child who loves to draw, more will be attracted to other materials, and thus will grow in this magical world that is drawing. Meet some materials:

Child Painting- Wax pen: its easy operation, is the ideal pen for the first scribbles of children. You can find crayon in different ways, with thin or rounded tips of all colors.
-Chalk: a soft, light material and breaks easily. Therefore, it requires some skill in children for use. Usually after two years is interesting that you offer some chalk and a blackboard for the child. It will help you control the intensity of his stroke.
-Pens: different colors and thicknesses, are ideal for the lines and contours, also can be used in any type of paper. Allows you to control muscle tension, develop coordination and exercise a sense of responsibility. It is difficult to remove and, therefore, requires more responsibility.
-Tempera: brush or your finger to children is very fun to paint with watercolors. Allow them to create many effects, acquire new movements of coordination, exerting different pressures of the stroke, etc. When you paint with your hand, the child will be creating a direct physical interaction with the material, enjoy senses like touch and smell, and foster their sense of exploration.

-Role: The role is as important as pencils. The format, size or color will determine the limits of children in the drawing, and texture will determine the type of pencil that the child will use.
In any case, children will always react in different ways depending on the type of material used.

How to encourage children to drawWhen the child is encouraged to draw, you will be helping to develop their perception, emotion and intelligence. The child will have more means to express themselves and gain more practice and experience. The creative potential for a child is enormous but it is not always recognized or are given the opportunity to implement it.
A good way to encourage your child to draw is to create a space, a place to hang their drawings. Invite him to create space for an exhibition of his favorite drawings. So when friends and relatives come, they can "visit" the exhibition. The corner can be in a cork box at the door of the locker room at the back under the door of the house or elsewhere.
