Child's Psychology - What Do Your Child's Drawings And Scribbles Mean?
A child communicates in many ways. Verbal communication offers just a tiny insight into his mind. Analyzing his drawings might give a deeper understanding of his mental and psychological state. It brings a better understanding of his personality and also offers parents and therapists a medium to help the child tide over difficult and stressful situations.
We often depend completely on verbal communication to understand our children. However, this forms just 10 percent of the human ability to communicate. Studying other forms of communication is even more important for a parent because children are often not aware of their feelings.
Besides, younger children might not be articulate enough to verbalize them. Studying a child’s drawings can be a good way of comprehending his mindset. Give him colouring tools like a drawing and colouring book with a set of crayons or water colours and look out for the colours he uses, the strokes he makes and the overall ‘feel’ of the picture. This surely can say a lot about him. Therapists also believe that drawing is a good way to express stress and find relief during tough times. Doctors have been successful in treating problems like bed-wetting, thumb-sucking and stuttering through art therapy.
Understanding Your Child’s Drawings Meanings
Your child's drawing's meaning can give you valuable insight into the state of mind of your child. It can also tell you about any kind of physical and sometimes even emotional experiences he is going through.
First Impression
The very first look at your child’s picture can sometimes reveal what he’s feeling. Look at the picture and see what you feel. Does it look depressing or disturbed? The answer to that question will give you your first clue to your child’s thoughts.
Colours
The colours he uses come next. Children as they grow up are exposed to a wide range of experiences and emotions - everything they come across is exciting and new! The response of a healthy child to all this information and sensory input would be to use a wide range of colours in their drawings. The more colours your child uses in his drawings, the more happy and excited he is about life! Colours also help to better express emotions than a simple pencil would. hence the overuse of a particular colour may also indicate the emotional state of the child. This is in line with the findings of colour psychology. In general, a child who uses blues and greens a lot is happy and well-adjusted. Bright and warm colours like oranges and yellows signify cheerfulness, whereas dark colours, especially in drawings that are sad in themselves, could point at a child that needs help.
Completeness
If a child leaves his drawings incomplete or draws light hesitant lines, he might be in need of encouragement. Such drawings point towards a hesitant, insecure child. Incomplete drawings might also be an indicator of a casual impulsive personality. However, if the pattern continues over a longer period of time, a parent might consider seeking help. Too many erasures and corrections might indicate a high level of anxiety. Conversely, too much embellishment might be an indicator of a child’s need for attention.
Position
Where on the page a child is drawing a picture can also indicate the state of mind of the child, but this would be applicable to older children who have better motor skills. A child drawing on the left of the page is a shy, introverted child; it could also mean the child is seeking the presence of a caring adult, or a nurturing mother- or father-figure. A child drawing on the right, on the other hand, talks about someone who has a desire to communicate, and is an out-going kid.
Common Children's Drawings Meanings
Your child will draw pictures in three phases:
Scribbling Phase: random scribbling of lines that has no real meaning.
Pre-schema Phase: when children try to draw what they see, including simple figures, trees, houses, etc.
Schema Phase: when there is a well-identifiable theme to the drawings, and the drawings are more realistic.
Through these three phases, your child's drawings will go from random scribbling to defined pictures with themes and a meaning that an adult can understand without asking the child. Through the different phases, your child's drawing's meaning will keep evolving. Here are some common themes that you may see in your child's scribbling, and what each of them means.
1. Scribbling
The first phase of your child - scribbling - may not make sense on paper. But psychologists say that at this stage, it is not the actual drawing but the process that is indicative. A child may put pencil to paper, drag it across, and make noises of an engine revving up. If you asked this child what he had just drawn, he may say 'daddy going to work'... which means the random scribbling is actually a car on the road. Scribblings make no sense when you look at them, but the process can give insights.
2. Smiling Sun
A full sun in the center of the page, with a smiley, is the sign of a well-adjusted, happy, satisfied child.
3. Stick Figures
Stick figure drawings usually depict family of the child. You can pick up cues about the child's emotional state by seeing where they place themselves in the picture, who are they standing next to (which indicates the person they feel closest to), which stick figure appears the biggest (which indicates who is the most important person in the family, according to the child), etc.

4. Increasing Number of Details
The more details a child adds to the drawing, the better his cognition is developing. children will usually add details like spectacles on the 'father', or a bindi on the mother. Children with acute observation may even be able to notice and interpret physical appearance differences, and may even be able to see 'gender' differently.
5. Hole in the Ground
This is the typical drawing of a child who has recently experienced loss. Usually it is in the form of a death in the family, or it could also be death of a pet. If the child is alone in the drawing it means the child is feeling very lonely.
6. Monsters
A lot of kids' stories are full of dark scary beings, so such a drawing could be nothing but the child's interpretation of the story. On the other hand, it has been indicated by psychologist Dr. Christopher Hastings that drawing monsters could be a coping mechanism of a child that is feeling powerless.
[caption id="attachment_175470" align="alignnone" width="1024"] Source: http://www.smosh.com/category/funny-pictures[/caption]
7. Clouds and Rain
Showing lots of clouds and rain in the picture could indicate the child is feeling especially anxious or scared. If the child is feeling particularly so, he may draw himself standing beneath a cloud.
8. Houses
The interesting details you can note about a house drawn by a child include the number of windows, whether the door is open or shut, if there is a walkway leading to the house, etc. More number of windows is an indication that the child wants people to 'see what's going on in the house'. An open door shows a welcoming attitude. A walkway on the other hand could indicate a socially well-adjusted child who has healthy social interactions with his peers.
9. Angry People
A child drawing angry people, especially family members, is likely experiencing emotional trauma. Many a times, these drawings are also a result of being exposed inadvertently to that kind of media - movies on TV, videos on the Internet, etc. The actions of these people also can give insight: an adult in some kind of danger can indicate a fear of losing the adult, or the child's anger towards the person. On the other hand, an adult hurting the child may indicate abuse at home, or fear of the concerned adult.
When Should You Examine Your Child's Drawings:
According to art therapist and international expert on the analysis of children's drawings Michal Wimmer, "Parents, educators and mental health professionals do not seek to analyze children's drawings with the sole purpose of identifying fears and distresses or bring about significant behavioral change. Drawings are an additional, easily available tool for understanding daily behavior." In fact, it has been indicated by several studies and researchers that children who draw more are actually more creative and intelligent.
Sometimes children may draw scary things: weapons, fire, angry people, fighting, etc. While the odd drawing is okay, if this is a common trend emerging in your child's drawings, you may want to consult a child psychologist. Some such situations, where consulting a psychologist may be necessary are when:
The child is drawing violent pictures repeatedly
The child draws a person or an object significantly bigger than himself
The child draws disjointed body parts for human figures
He uses too many dark colours and unpleasant images
It is important to look at a child’s picture in its entirety. Never rely only on your interpretation of your child's drawings. They can draw som pretty darned ridiculous and crazy and funny things! Remember to ask your child the meaning of what he has drawn. Do not take every single scribble meaning to the heart! Read more

10 Simple Art and Craft Ideas for Children’s Day
Here are a few ideas that that can be easy enough for your tot to do on his own or under your supervision (especially where scissors are involved!). Whatever the case, oodles of fun are guaranteed!
1. Paper Pinwheel
You must have made and played with these as kids - now it’s time to teach your little one how to make a wonderful little pinwheel that moves with the wind!
What You Will Need
A sheet of paper (decorated or plain)
Unsharpened pencil with eraser
Crayons
Scissors
Ruler
Sharpened pencil
Ball pin
How to Make
Start off by cutting a square from the sheet of paper, with each side measuring 15 cm, and decorate the square with crayons.
Mark the centre of the page, measuring or eyeballing it. Using the ruler and pencil, draw two diagonal lines which extend from one corner to the other. The lines should cross at the centre of the page.
Once the lines have been drawn, mark a point on each line (about 7 cm away from each corner). Cut on the line from each corner up to the marked points.
Erase pencil marks (except for the centre point).
Now using the pin, punch a hole in the centre as well as at the tips of the corners.
Use the pin to poke through the point at one corner and curl it towards the centre without folding it (to look like a flower petal). Hold it in place and curl the remaining three towards the centre.
Push the pin through the centre hole. Hold a pencil with an eraser on a flat surface and align the centre of the pinwheel against the eraser, and push the pin into the eraser.
The pinwheel is now ready! Blow at it or hold it against a light breeze to see it move!
2. Paper Plate Mask
These fun and colourful masks are not just easy to make, but your child can always use them to indulge in pretend play later!
What You Will Need
Paper plates
Pencil
Sketch pens
Paint and paintbrushes
Decorative materials like glitter, stickers, etc.
Scissors
Ribbon or paper straw
Glue
How to Make
Use a pencil to draw the shape of the mask on the paper plate. The shape and size should be large enough to accommodate your child’s facial features. You can find various designs on the Internet and even print out a design for reference.
Cut out the mask and the eye-holes. To get symmetrical holes, fold the plate in half lightly, and cut along the outlines.
Paint or decorate the mask using sketch pens, paints, glitter and so on. Place it on a newspaper or another paper plate to avoid a mess.
Once done, punch holes on either side of the mask so that a ribbon can be strung through it. Alternately, you can also stick a paper straw (decorated with paint) on a side, for your child to hold up the mask.
Your child can now pretend to be different characters using his mask!
3. Pistachio Shell Photo Frame

What You Will Need
A sheet of cardboard
Pistachio shells
Paint and paintbrushes

Scissors
Decorative materials like glitter, stickers, etc.
Sheet of plastic
How to Make
Start off by shaping the sheet of cardboard into an attractive shape - you can leave it as a plain square or rectangle or try different shapes like that of a heart, flower, or your child’s favourite cartoon character.
Decorate the sheet using sketch pens, paint, and other decorative materials. Do the same for the pistachio shells. You can paint it with different colours and patterns, and get really creative with it.
Glue the pista shells on to the sheet of cardboard in the pattern you prefer, but ensure that there is ample space in between for pasting a photograph.
Once dry, paste a photograph on the sheet, such that the shells are framing the image.
Cover the photograph with a piece of clear plastic to protect it from any scratches or damage. The piece of plastic needs to be bigger than the photograph so as to cover it from all sides.
Hang up this beautiful creation in your child’s favourite spot at home!

Getting Pregnant in Your 20s : Facts You Need to Know
The 20s are often regarded as the best time to be pregnant. At the same time, there are several other factors apart from age that determine what constitutes a healthy pregnancy. Hence, if you are trying to get pregnant while you are in your 20s, there are some aspects that you must be aware of. Pregnancy at any age means numerous changes in your body as well as life. There are some bodily changes that will continue forever, and some that differ from woman to woman. So, before you plan to get pregnant while in your 20s, do consider these different factors and facts related to pregnancy.
Conceiving in 20s
Many women have this question in mind - what is the right age to get pregnant? The 20s can be considered to be best for pregnancy because there are fewer health complications at this time. This improves the chances of smooth delivery and faster recuperation. As the body is younger, it can bounce back to health and shape faster. The bodily systems work well, so the healing also takes place faster in case of a young mother. In older women, there are issues that come with aging which means the time taken to overcome pregnancy-related issues can be longer.
It is also true that it is easier to conceive at this age than at a later age. Women in their 20s mostly succeed in getting pregnant within just two months of trying, if they don’t suffer from any health complications.
The chance of miscarriage in the 20s is low as compared to pregnancy at an older age. Further, babies from older mothers may have a higher likelihood of having chromosomal abnormalities. It is for this same reason that babies born to mothers in their twenties tend to be healthier and have a lower risk of birth defects.
Again, the results may vary from person to person. There are cases of women in their 20s having suffered from preeclampsia which leads to high blood pressure in women. In some cases, babies can be born with low birth weight due to the nutritional defects or poor eating habits of the mother.
All women wishing to conceive at this age should see a doctor before getting pregnant. They must lead a healthy life, eat well, and follow the gynaecologist’s advice throughout the three trimesters.
Advantages of Getting Pregnant in Your 20's
From the biological point of view, the 20s are the ideal age to get pregnant, as this is the age when a woman’s fertility is at its peak. Their bodies are healthier, the uterus is younger, the eggs are healthier, and the body systems are working at optimum capacity. This is also the time when the number of eggs produced is at its height. The more the eggs released during ovulation, the better are the chances of getting pregnant. Hence the 20s is the “golden pregnancy age.”
As one gets older, the chances of chromosomal defects in eggs increase, and this is the reason there is probability of genetic anomalies in babies born to older mothers.
Miscarriages usually do not occur in young mothers. The risk is higher in older women because older women are likely to have more health issues compared to a younger woman.
The other advantage is that early motherhood helps one to be on their toes all the time and enables the mother to keep pace with the baby’s routine. The body is healthier and can cope with the stress and responsibilities of motherhood more effectively than an older woman.
Of course, the earlier you become a mother, the better the chances of becoming a grandmom earlier as well. There is no better gift to grandkids than healthy grandparents who play with them and help them deal with life’s challenges.
Drawbacks of Getting Pregnant in Your 20's
Well, as there are advantages of being a mother in your 20s, there are certain cons as well. For starters, the 20s are the best years for one to discover their potential and to work at it, in terms of professional as well as personal life. These are the years when you can chalk out a great career path. Though there are women who balance both well, there are many jobs that are quite challenging and would require a woman to prioritize her goals. This means that a pregnancy could force them to take a break from their career by which time they may be replaced by someone else.
There are also financial aspects when a baby comes along. Unless one is born into money, the twenties is when someone has just started earning. Having a baby can be expensive and would add enormous financial strain for some couples.
There are also relationship issues that may crop up when a couple shoulders the responsibilities of a child when they themselves are so young. Also, not many women have the emotional maturity to be a mother at such a young age.
Though physical disadvantages are fewer if you conceive in your 20s, each pregnancy is different. Even in their twenties, the mother must be in perfect health to bear a healthy child.
Chances of Getting Pregnant In 20s
In the 20s, the uterus is strong and the eggs produced are plentiful. Thus, women in their 20s have a better chance of getting pregnant as soon as they start trying. Having sex a couple of days before ovulation gives them a 33 percent chance of getting pregnant. That means, at each cycle, depending on the correct method of trying, the chances of getting pregnant are higher than in any other age. The chances of conceiving by age means that the chances of delivering a healthy baby are high and not just the act of getting pregnant alone.
What to Do If You Want To Get Pregnant Now?
Those who wish to get pregnant at this stage should first prepare their body and life for pregnancy. Start by leading a healthy and active life. Go for regular exercising, reduce extra fat, and try to bring your weight to the right Body Mass Index or BMI. Include more vegetables and fruits in your diet and increase the intake of lean meat. Avoid alcohol and smoking. Consume more water. Try to be cheerful, happy, and avoid all matters of stress.
Try to conceive naturally for at least three cycles. You can use ovulation predictor kits or other methods such as tracking cervical mucus and basal body temperature to find out the exact day you are ovulating. Have sex on these days to maximise your chances of getting pregnant.
Even after trying, if you are unable to get pregnant, then you should consult a gynaecologist. They will study your cycle, and find out if there are any problems that prevent conception. Follow their advice and you will soon see results.
How to Avoid Getting Pregnant in 20s?
If you do not wish to be pregnant in your 20s, there are many ways of birth control you can try. Remember, there are also natural ways to prevent pregnancy, but it is best to take a doctor’s advice on this. You can also freeze your eggs when you are in your 20s so that you can use them later when you are ready for motherhood. This is a good option for women who want to wait till their 30s to get pregnant and attain more emotional, financial and psychological maturity. You can take the course of assisted reproductive technology and conceive as and when you wish to.
Biologically, the twenties are the ideal time for a woman to get pregnant as the health of a woman is at its optimum at this age. However, this too has its risks and complications. Every individual is different, and being young only reduces the complications but doesn’t eliminate them.
Conclusion
One of the hardest choices women make is perhaps deciding when they want to get pregnant. Do they want to have a potentially safer pregnancy by conceiving in their twenties, or wait for stability at the risk of increasing the complications involved? Ultimately, the choice rests with the individual. Whatever decision you take, it is best to go for a final say on the matter after due consultation with a doctor.

A. I think it would be advisable for you to get an ultrasound done with your doctor that’s going to give you a clarity because if there is a pregnancy it would be visible at least at least that sack is visible if it’s a regular pregnancy so it would be advisable to have a test with your doctor
