Kiddie Art aka Emergent Writing

NaBloPoMo#25B: Here's some pictures of Maiya, 2nd generation artist. You will see she is both a lefty and a righty. I love watching her create. I have been labeling her drawings as she tells me what each one is. Her scribbling (aka emergent writing in my ECE class) now takes the shape of animals, friends and family, usually round or oval circles. Big ones for adults and small ones for kids and babies. Lately, she is also into characters from pbskids.org's coloring pages. We're dating them since their structure is changing as she grows and develops.
