I set up a drawing session for JX last week where he could freely choose any art materials that he wanted to use and mix & match them as frequently as he wished. I didn’t suggest JX what to draw or how to draw as I didn’t want him to use my drawing as the basic for what is ‘right’ or ‘wrong’ way to draw. I just drew alongside with JX.
As the drawing progressed …
Mommy : “ See, mummy is going to draw a cat.” {I drew a cat}
Mommy: “ An elephant.” { Again, I drew an elephant}
Suddenly JX pointed to a blank space and said : “ A bear.” Then he proceed with some scribbles using a blue colour crayon. After scribbling, he pointed to the scribbles again and said : “ A bear.”
Who would have guessed that these blue scribbles were actually representing ‘A bear” ?
I looked closely at ‘the bear’ that JX drew, they were really very simple lines but I was glad that through his narration, I got to see what idea that he was trying to share. （＾ｖ＾）
