Every child has a spark of creativity.

At Ashni Drawing Class, we help them express that spark through drawing, color, and imagination. For kids under 10, art is more than fun—it’s a path to confidence, focus, and emotional growth.

In this blog, we’ll take you through engaging drawing activities we use in our Chennai-based classes to turn curious kids into confident little artists. 

🎯 1. Building Drawing Skills Through Lines and Shapes

We start by teaching young children how to break down complex images into simple shapes. Learning to draw with lines, circles, squares, and triangles helps them understand structure while boosting hand control. 

Activity examples:

• Turning shapes into animals,
• Creating objects using line patterns,
• Step-by-step drawing tutorials
  

Benefits: 

Builds sketching confidence, supports hand–eye coordination Makes learning simple and fun.

At Ashni Drawing Class, we guide each child to build from basic lines to beautiful drawings without pressure. 

🎨 2. Exploring Emotions Through Colors

Children express feelings with colors long before they learn how to write. We design coloring activities that help them connect emotion and imagination.

Activity examples: 

“Color your day” pages Rainbow mood charts , Abstract color splash activities.

Benefits:

Emotional awareness Color theory (warm vs. cool, light vs. dark). 

Focus and fine motor skills.

This activity not only relaxes the mind but also encourages open emotional expression.

✂️ 3. Combining Drawing with Craft:

Kids love to touch, fold, cut, and stick! That’s why we blend drawing with simple crafts to create hands-on projects that stimulate both the brain and the heart.

Books and drawings make a perfect pair. We often read a short story and ask kids to draw a scene, a character, or their own ending.
