Sketch of child of 8 years old

Sketch of child of 10 years old

I have proposed the ScienceLab with another group of children more bigger,

it's interesting to note the attentions of the details,

 the care about colors (very similar to reality),

the different observation capacity in the two ages.

ScienceLab for kids: dandelions!

This Lab teach to children to observe the world

 and help they to go beyond the stereotype of a flower 

A child of 5 years old have observed and drawn each part of the plant

The sketch of a child of 3 years old, with a little assistance of teacher
(note the difference of details with the 5 years old)

A small workshop with children (3-5 years) about science & nature:

we have searched the dandelion in the garden,

we have observed how it is made 

(the leaves, the seeds, the dandelion clock, the flowers&petals, ...)

and then we have tried to draw it :-)

...other sketch of children of 5 years old
