Interpreting your child's drawing

During drawing, the child is free from restrictions and prohibitions. He is focused on himself, on his feelings and emotions. Therefore, everything that appears on paper - people, animals,

objects - This is a reflection of his thoughts and attitude to something. The country of the Soviets will tell you what the interpretation of your child's picture is, and it will help

deal with such a difficult task.

Interpreting your child's drawing

Invite the child to draw his family. This task is best given to children 3-10 years. Give a clean sheet of A4 size paper and a box of colored

pencils. Do not rush the child and do not dictate how and what to draw. If a child has any questions, then advise him to draw anything he wants. It is better to move away and

do your own things, while quietly peeking in what sequence your child draws family members.

Usually, children start to paint themselves, then the most beloved member of the family or the most authoritative: mother, father and other relatives. Further they can decorate

its drawing with clouds, flowers, cars, etc. If everything happens the other way around, the child displays butterfly birds and does not draw his own family, then this is an alarming signal -

a small creator of psychological discomfort. Perhaps, the reason lies in conflict, resentment, stress from an intrafamily quarrel. If children feel comfortable in the family,

feel themselves important and necessary for all relatives, they depict themselves in the center of the picture between mom and dad.

Sometimes it happens that his self-portrait draws in the last place, and even does not draw at all ("Later I'll draw", "Places did not suffice" - they usually answer like that

children to the question if they did not draw themselves). This is an alarming signal for parents that you should think about your family relationships - the baby does not feel needed and

favorite.

Of great importance in the interpretation of the figure is the size of the figures. Outcast children paint themselves small, in the corner of the picture. If a child's self-esteem is too high, he

spoiled by attention and everything is permissible, the drawing of his person can be on the whole sheet. With normal self-esteem, a child draws himself of the same height with his parents or slightly

below.

When assessing the psychological climate of the family You need to pay attention to the distance between people in the picture. The greater this distance, the stronger the emotional

disunity in the family. A child can draw some partitions, objects that separate people from each other in the figure - this only indicates problems in the

communication.

It is also important to pay attention to the fact, what is the busy family drawn in the group portrait. A good moment, if a child depicts all his loved ones, employed

one common cause. If there is no one in the picture who is close, and the question, for example, "Where is daddy?" The kid answers "I went on a business trip," it's worth thinking about the relationship of the father and

child.

It is also important, what colors portraits portraits of a small artist. The most beloved member of the family he will paint so that he will envy any designer-

decorator. Moms in the drawings can be dressed in princess dresses, hair can be red-blue, etc. But the cold tones, brown or black, indicate some kind of

conflicts or discomfort in communicating with a particular family member. Also it is necessary to pay attention, What colors are most often used by children in drawing.

Pay attention to the drawing of the head and faces. Often the child pays more attention to some detail. For example, if the eyes are very carefully drawn

grandmother, this means that the child feels from her enhanced visual control. Or the figure shows a sharply drawn mouth - a source of endless moralizing and

instructions.

A lot of information can be obtained based on the general emotional state of the drawn family. Smiles or shouting mouths speak for themselves. Even superficial

a look at the group portrait will give you a clear idea of ​​what kind of psychological background reigns in your home, and what each member of the family represents. Children are much more psychologists,

than you think.

If the child painted himself with his hands apart, with a smile - this indicates his openness to the world, sociability and love of others. If the hands are pressed,

Hidden behind the back - this indicates a closed and closed. Interpretation of the figure, where there are no hands at all, speaks of the child's sense of injustice in the family and of his powerlessness.

Sometimes it happens that the child draws sharp teeth, fists, arms - this can be a defensive reaction to any emotional danger. In this case

It is necessary to analyze what caused this demonstrative hostility, from which the child is protected.

Slightly unusual for the norms accepted by society are drawings with a drawing of genitals. For young children, this is a vision of the naturalness of nature in

all its manifestations. In older children, this can be interpreted as an expression of aggression and demonstrativeness, a desire to attract attention.

Actually, the picture of your child will tell about him, about his feelings and thoughts is much more than the baby himself. You need to be very attentive to his

creativity - timely and correct interpretation of your child's drawing will help to not miss important moments in upbringing.
