Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Education is not only about being able to read, write, and count. Creativity is a huge part of the educational process and of our lives. Children are naturally creative and they like to be busy, especially if this is fun and something comes out from their hands. Adults often do not recognize the value of this important activity. We can not only spend a great time together, but we can help our kids develop many skills and abilities. It also provides an excellent opportunity for trying new ideas. Creativity is what makes a difference in developing creative ways of thinking and problem solving. Creativity is much more than product: it is a process. It is a specific form of self-expression. It is to learn with inspiration from personal experience. The importance of a child’s creative process is also in the opportunity to experience and explore materials. Cooperation is an important component in the creative process, which is directed by the adult, but should be a result of the child’s preference. This kind of activity can help us learn more about our kids, about their feelings, their way of thinking, their uniqueness and their mental and emotional health. Childhood development of creativity is not about telling them, but showing them, and doing it with them.

This handy drawing book is a terrific way to work with your child to grow their self-confidence. About This Book My Awesome Drawing Book has 60 different drawing prompts and activities Single sided pages so that markers can be used Huge variety of prompts from simple shapes and lines to complex mathematical patterns An introduction for parents with questions to ask your child to help them be creative Soft matte cover Perfect child friendly size at 8.5 x 11 inches Good for approx 2 year olds to 10 year olds Wonderful as a gift or present for anyone who wants to encourage creativity and freedom of expression in children Makes a perfect gift for boys and girls Why is drawing important for kids? Drawing provides a way for kids to express their emotions and feelings. It gives them quiet time to processthings that have happened, and to dream and imagine. Some children will invent and tell stories while they aredrawing and coloring, others will hum sing or talk to you. Drawing is also an awesome way to practice fine motor skills. Those small muscles in the hands and wrist get agreat workout while creating in the pages of this book. Fine motor skills are important for writing, gettingdressed, eating and anything else that needs little movements! It gives them freedom of expression - they can choose their own strategy and do whatever they want to on the page. This increases self-confidence, and empowers them. Open ended drawing prompts (like the ones in this book) encourage creative thinking and problem-solving. These are vital skills which are often overlooked in traditional education, where the purpose is to get the correct answer or to follow a defined process to come to a conclusion or end result Your child will find a different activity on every page. Some are very simple - for example, a circle might become a face, a pizza, a planet, a ball, or the foundation of a complex mandella pattern. A stack of 3-d blocks could be transformed into a maze or a beautiful wall of color and pattern. A spider web might get a spider added to it, another child might trace around the lines creating a page of webs. Yet another might choose to color the segments in, creating a lovely tiled effect. Remember to let your child do thinking. What do they see here? What can they add to this? When you give this book to your child you can look through it together, explain the concept and encourage their ideas. They will love this part and enjoy talking to you about the possibilities. My Awesome Drawing Book is also great to pop into the car or your bag when going out. Get My Awesome Drawing Book if you would like to encourage your child to be creative and confident.
