DRAW WITH ME FOR PRESCHOOL PAINTING

The sofa.

So it's November and the theme of the month in the Cameroon Nursery curriculum is THE FAMILY AND THE HOME. 

Each month, the teachers will think of a project that ties with the theme and in the coloring books we draw an object for the kids to paint.

Last month, the theme was THE BODY so I drew a dress. For the boys, I drew a trouser in their book while the girls, I drew a flowery Skirt. 

The kids were so happy with this little distinctions and they would even help me out so I don't make a mistake and draw a trouser in a girl's book and skirt in a boy's book.

This month is different. No distinction needed because it's about the family and home.

So my colleagues decided to draw a house and a pot. Nursery 2 teacher drew a house,while the Prenursery teacher drew a pot while I decided to go for a couch.

Most times we try to go for something easy to draw since we have 39+ kids in each class and that means we have to draw the same object in 39+ different books. 

My table with lots of books.

I wanted something different but looks real. I just didn't want to be basic and draw something which doesn't look nice (to me atleast).

Mind you...I'm not good at drawing. 

How then did I manage to draw this sofa you might ask?

The answer is YOUTUBE!!!

Yep, I went on the almighty YOUTUBE and practice before putting drawing in my kids books.

HERE IS THE VIDEO OF HOW I DREW THE COUCHE.

Hope you loved the post.
