How to be an Awesome
Drawing Mentor (Even if you cant draw.)
FOR PARENTS
If your child says "I can't draw..."
Tell them about a past experience of yours when you
felt like you were really bad at something but you kept
practicing and eventually became good at it. You can
also remind them of something THEY struggled with at
first then accomplished through practice.
Always encourage and never criticize.
Examples:
"That's a very creative approach."
"Those colours are so bright (deep, rich)!"
"Those are very expressive lines."
If your child says "Yours looks better than
mine..."
Let your child draw for the fun of it.
If your child is already having fun drawing on their
own, trying to avoid jumping in with praise while
theyre in the moment. This may shift their motivation
from creation simply for the fun of it to doing so for
external validation.
If you demonstrate drawing for your child, they
might start comparing. Remind them that youve
been practicing a lot longer than they have! Bring
attention away from comparison and encourage
drawing just for fun. Try playing a game where you
both co-create the same drawing by each adding
one new thing at a time to the picture. Have fun creating together!

FOR PARENTS
If your child expresses frustration with their drawing,
help them understand that drawing isnt about
perfection but for the fun of creation. Remind them
that many great discoveries have come from
mistakes. You can also ask them what they think
they could learn from this or what they would try
next time.
Examples:
"How big do you think you will need to draw
this in order for it to fill the page?"
"How many whiskers does that cat have?"
"Can you tell me more about your drawing?"
Don't try to correct 'mistakes' or draw
over top of your child's drawings.
Ask questions about your child's work.
More fun drawing activities:
Avoid using labels.
When complimenting your child try to refrain from
saying you are a great artist/drawer. Instead say
you did a great job at this drawing. Children often
begin to associate labels with their identity and sense
of self worth, which can lead to reluctance to draw
later for fear of making mistakes. (If I draw badly
then I wont be a good artist anymore!)
Shape Detective! Look at everyday objects and spot
the shapes that make up their form. Do the objects
appear to change shape when you look from
different angles?
Try drawing from life. They could draw one of their
favorite toys or their friend. This increases
observation skills.
Try drawing from memory. Ask your child to draw a
scene from an event they remember. Once done, ask
questions about their work and why they chose that
event.
Follow these guidelines
and youll be well on
your way to nurturing
a love for drawing that
could last a lifetime!
