Instruction
1. Equip the convenient location where he will be able to draw for the kid. It is better if it is a table and a chair on growth for the child. It is also possible to put the kid at a usual table on a high chair. Track that in a workplace for the little artist there was enough light.
2. Prepare paper and a marker or a bright felt-tip pen. As small children begin to draw from a shoulder, sheets of paper have to be big. Use, for example, pieces of wall-paper. Begin to draw with the child at the age of about a year. If the kid himself does not show interest in drawing, set it an example. Take a marker and carry out by it several times according to paper. It is not obligatory to draw something concrete, in the beginning it is enough of fact that your child will understand how it is possible to leave marks on a leaf. Then suggest the kid most to try to draw.
3. Use for the first experiments not pencils, but a marker or felt-tip pens as they brighter also do not demand efforts to leave an accurate mark. Get water-based felt-tip pens and do not leave the child alone with them, kids taste everything. Also show to the young artist how to draw paints - as the brush leaves a mark on paper as paints mix up. Call colors which you draw, comment on the actions.
4. You learn to hold a felt-tip pen with three fingers correctly at once. Small children take all objects in a cam, it is so more convenient to them. Correct the kid if he takes a felt-tip pen incorrectly, remind of it. Such skill is formed slowly. You watch that the child not too strongly squeezed a felt-tip pen, otherwise the hand will be overstrained and will quickly be tired.
5. You praise tirelessly the first drawings of the kid, thereby you stimulate him on further feats. At first at the child horizontal lines usually turn out, then he will begin to draw vertical, then a semicircle and at last a circle. Do not wait for masterpieces from the kid at once. Subject drawings will appear much later.
6. Suggest the kid to try to draw finger-type paints. Not all children love them, some are frightened by need to immerse a finger in something unclear. Show on the example as it becomes. Take a foam sponge, wet it and apply paint on a sponge. Press a sponge a finger and leave a print on paper. To interest the kid, finish drawing on a print the handle an amusing mug. If the child refuses to draw on paper, suggest to ornament fingers the balloon. Usually love of prints of children's fingers and palms it is possible to create a set of interesting pictures.
7. Reduce the size of the leaf offered the kid to A3 format since approximately at the age of one and a half years the child begins to draw from an elbow. Later the kid will begin to draw all hand, and then and only fingers. That it occurred earlier, teach the child to draw small objects. For example, draw a hedgehog and suggest the kid to finish drawing needles or draw the person and ask to trace his face. In process of development of skills of drawing suggest the child to use pencils, they demand the bigger force of pressing.
8. You do not ask the child to draw something concrete, it is better if the child dreams itself, thereby he develops imagination. Develop associative thinking of the kid. For example, if you see that the child drew something roundish, ask him: ""It is a ball?" Further the kid himself also will notice that the circle is similar to a ball, the line — the road, an oval — to a cloud, etc. When your child understands that he can display the impressions on paper, draw all what was seen, there will be a big jump in its development.
9. You should not criticize drawings of the kid, it offends the child, and he can lose interest in drawing. Do not correct and do not finish drawing anything in works of the young artist for the same reason. Let the first drawings be imperfect, but these are works of your child, so, they are the best in the world. You praise the kid as much as possible, hang up his works on a wall, show them to guests.
10. Develop art taste of the child. Show it reproductions. At more advanced age you bring together the child in art gallery. And let your kid will not become the outstanding artist, the main thing that drawing will bring to it, so, and to you, there are a lot of pleasant minutes.
