How to Encourage Drawing among Children:

  • Babies from about 11-19 months are interested in writing, as this activity provides sensory pleasure, independent play, and physical movement. Scribbling supports all muscles, even hand-eye coordination, as well as an emotional release. Campaigns are usually large, and children are often more interested in the signs they make rather than drawing things.
  • Encourage your child by complimenting them, asking about their drawings, and where possible, actively participating in drawing activities - shaping and social interaction. Avoid making their art into an object or pattern; let it be a beautiful page of writing!
  • As hand-eye coordination develops, an exemplary motor efficiency improves, writing develops into more controlled attempts to pull an object. At this stage, many children will start naming their drawings and include zig-zag symbols and circles. 
  • It's an excellent time for them to meet different colors and explore a new world, giving them another chance to make free/uncontrollable decisions and allow them to be creative.
  • Children learn a lot by experimenting with using different drawing tools - including crayons, colored pencils, thick markers, paintbrushes, and chalk.


  • Provide drawing papers and papers that they can use/access regularly.
  • Show that you also enjoy drawing, but avoid telling your children what to sketch.
  • Demonstrate interest by commenting on the lines, shapes, and colors the child uses, and ask them what they are pulling to encourage your child to add more detail and imagination to their artwork.
  • Avoid comparing or commenting on children's art that they have done something wrong.
  • Display artwork and paintings at a child's eye level so they can appreciate and see their work.
