Answer to Question #127035 in Psychology for Zanele

Question

How to identify that the child acquires drawing skill?

Answer 1

A child's initial creativity in drawing reflects from random scribbling, which involves large movements of shoulders. Similarly, controlled scribbling, whereby a child make controlled marks on a notebook can demonstrate their drawing skills. Over time, children make the transition to holding a crayon or marker between their thumb and pointer finger. At later stages, children can demonstrate the ability to plan before drawing an image. They also represent images on a paper and try to color them.
