Often, with the help of a drawing, you can learn a lot about a child. Especially this fact applies to those babies who are quite secretive. Sometimes it’s easier for a child to display the whole gamut of feelings in his soul than to express it all in words.
Children's drawings carry a lot of information. Especially this fact applies to uncommunicative babies and children with autism. They will help to understand what is happening in a small person in the soul, what he feels, what he is afraid of, what he wants.
The main points of the drawing that parents should pay special attention to include the following:
Color tone
Prevalence in the drawing of black, gray, brown, dark green, etc. tones speaks about the depressive mood of the baby. If the child uses too bright shades, for example, red, yellow, orange, this indicates hyper-excitability and aggressiveness.
Item Size
Too small items can indicate the secrecy of the baby, and too large items about the desire for leadership.
Who is pictured
Pay attention to who is shown in the figure, if they are animals, then how they look, what they do, what they are. Aggressive animals often talk about the baby's need for protection. If family members are shown in the figure, how they look, whether they hold hands, stand apart or fight, etc.
How are the objects in the picture
A large amount of empty space in the picture means that in the family where the baby lives, there are too many secrets and secrets from him.
It is best to disassemble the features of the drawing with the child, this will provide an opportunity to understand why he depicted objects in the drawing in this way and not otherwise.
