I love the idea behind this Pet inspired art project. Basically you take a photo of your pet or use the free printable here and color in the background or the actual pet. Why do I like this so much? It has an element of control. When my Child sits down and says “what do i draw mummy” I usually say well you think of something. As I do feel it is important for them to “think” for themselves cause gosh know they do very little at the moment (for themselves). Sometimes though I know they are tired and mentally exhausted and this is when this Drawing Prompt comes in to play. This is when you grab these sheets and let the kids just create without thought. It’s not only calming its creative too. You can take the project further by asking them to write a story about their drawing etc.
