Copy The Same

You can use the following idea to create your simple drawings to assist your child to copy and colour the same.
Draw a butterfly. One with with coloured dots. Your child is to copy the same on the other wing.

Note: For younger children, they are unable to draw small circles, normally circular shapes, usually large. It doesn't matter. Most important is to make them feel happy of the new creation. You can help to encourage the child by adding on the circles to make the picture look better. Or you could hold his/her hand to guide him/her to draw the circle.

I found that you can incorporate art in your pre-writing skill time with your child. This makes it more interesting at the same time the child is able to explore his creativity in a fun way.
