Free Hand Drawing-K.G-I & K.G-II

Free hand drawing – KG 1 and KG 2 .

Drawing at its best is not what your eyes see but what our mind understands.

— Millard Sheets

Free hand drawing is the basis for other creative activities like painting, craft making, sculpture, and more. It helps in the development of #handeyecoordination and fine #motorskills, which is crucial for the overall physical development of the child. In most cases, children take to drawing naturally and enjoy creating on their own. It helps to engage the child for a longer time which leads to increased concentration level.

Free hand drawing practice is also very important to improve #observationskills like perception of size, spacing and proportions.

To incorporate this practice in our kids of KG 1 and KG II, free hand drawing activity was held on 9th December- 2022 in the respective sessions. Children were asked to draw on given topics which they did with lot of #interest and #enthusiasm. The colours on their drawing sheet spread happiness on their faces and their eyes were glowing with confidence.

Doodle Art Work

Doodling @ Cambridge

“All children are artists.” – Pablo Picasso

Educators at Cambridge being aware of the fact that the more #senses we use, the more we learn to encourage students to make diagrams of the content studied which aid their #verbal and #visuallearning of the knowledge by allowing them to listen to what the teacher is saying and create drawings of the process.

Encouraging the use of #imagination and to kick-start the creative process the pupils were given topics to experiment with their #doodleart. The students came up with varied presentations creating their own content, diverting thoughts into action. The activity helped to engage their brain by activating the senses of #sight&sound and having an improved memory to increase #attentionspan.

Doodling, according to research, can help us #relax, #processinformation, and #solveproblemscreatively.
