This kind of copying is to make children consciously, without excessive pursuit of shape, and to exercise their writing ability and lay the foundation for future calligraphy and painting. You can try to let children start with stick figures, which is quick and simple to learn, and more childlike and attractive to children. Children learn painting mainly by copying template painting, and can quickly learn the initial painting skills, which is conducive to the transition to sketch, will painting, memory painting, proposition and creation painting. So copying is the basis of children's painting.
2, 3-year-old children can just take a pen and let them copy some clear images, such as red apples, balls, bananas, trees and flowers, wool balls and so on. Children aged 3 or 4 can draw some handkerchiefs, tall buildings, cars, simple figures and animals they like. Older children can draw more complex images and add interesting plots, or they can choose excellent children's art books as templates and teach them to draw while talking. Attractive plots can focus children's attention, clearly remember their image characteristics and increase their knowledge.
