Self portrait

Taking a self-portrait is a fun and creative activity for children and adults that helps develop drawing, self-expression and observation skills. A self-portrait is a drawing or painting that depicts the author, usually at full length or bust. It can be a real work of art that reflects the personality and character of the author.

To create a self-portrait, you will need a large sheet of paper, craft paper or newspaper, a mirror and markers or pencils. Find a place where your child can lie down on the paper, and then trace the outline with a thick marker or pencil. This will become the basis for creating a self-portrait.

Then have your child look in the mirror and try to draw a life-size drawing of his face and body. It is important to take into account details such as clothing, jewelry and hair. If the child does not want to draw in full height, then you can only draw a face that he can observe in the mirror placed on the work table.

When creating a self-portrait, it is important to encourage your child and help him develop his creative skills. Explain that a self-portrait can be a true work of art that reflects his personality and character.

It is important to remember that it is necessary to take breaks from time to time, especially if the child is busy with the creative process. Set a timer for a specific time and explain to your child that he should take a break when the timer beeps.

Taking a self-portrait is a fun and creative activity that helps develop drawing and self-expression skills. Encourage your child and help him develop his creative skills, and he will be able to create a real work of art that will be proud of him and his family.
