Teaching Children to Draw


Marjorie Wilson - 1982
    Marjorie and Brent Wilson’s classic guide for teachers and parents is now expanded and updated! Using hundreds of real examples, this new version breaks children’s art into three types: when the children draw on their own, influenced by peers and popular culture; when the teacher initiates playful and game-like drawing; and when adults and kids draw together to develop new visual worlds.The Wilsons offer suggestions to help children expand their artistic abilities and imagination, including creating narrative drawings about themselves, their families, their friends, and their lives.
