Do you find it harder than ever to help your children overcome stress and boredom? If you have ever come back from work, exhausted and irritable and be greeted by your children jumping up and down, full of energy and yelling at the top of their voice, you will easily understand and appreciate the value of introducing your children to art.
Introducing your children to drawing can open a door to hours of enjoyment and wonder. Bonnie Martin, a painter and graphic designer based in Portland, Oregon, and the author of the How To Draw For Kids Book remembers that when she was 7 years old she had a couple of similar drawing books and spent hours fascinated and entertained drawing things from them. She designed this book with the idea of making your kids’ drawing experience as captivating and exciting as her own experience as a child.
Each drawing lesson is presented in exactly 8 steps that are quick and easy to follow. The only materials that you will need are a pencil, an eraser and some paper. With Bonnie’s How To Draw For Kids book, your children will learn:
- How To Draw Animals
- Ducks
- Teddy Bears
- Frogs
- Dinosaurs
- Dogs
- Birds
- Rabbits
- Turtles
- How To Draw People
- Standing
- Sitting
- Walking
- Jumping
- Faces
- How To Draw 3D objects
- Cubes
- Cylinders
- Cones
- How To Use Color
- The Rainbow of Colors
- The Color Wheel
- How To Mix Colors
Besides the index, the introduction and the bio, there is no other text in Bonnie’s How To Draw For Kids Book . I believe she designed it in this way to allow your children to follow the step by step illustrations without constant guidance, giving you a most deserved break from your day. This sense of personal accomplishment can be great for your children’s self-confidence.
I am including an example on How To Draw Ducks below so you can have an idea of how a lesson is presented in the book. Just simple, easy to follow and fun.
Encourage your children to develop their fine motor and cognitive skills, problem solving abilities, imagination and creativity. Share their joy and help them build their self esteem when they proudly discover the works of art that they can create when they follow Bonnie’s How To Draw For Kids Book .
