3.What do you think are some of the benefits for children from drawing (or painting)?
(Answer) There are obvious benefits of drawing that children can get.
(Give a reason for your answer) It allows them to express themselves, especially when they can't express their feelings through words, which can be very frustrating. The visual imagery that children acquire through drawing is vital to their later understanding of subjects such as geography and math. Without an ability to map components or make sense of symbols, children's development in these areas is likely to be severely restricted.
