Drawing is a very important activity during childhood, both because it allows us to understand a child's state of mind and because it is a way through which the child can express his or her creativity.

It is not wrong to let them draw what is going on in their head and above all let them do it in their own way, perhaps by drawing a person with three arms and one leg!

However, it may be interesting to show them a very simple way to draw something more realistic using letters and numbers.

How to do this? Just take a look at these images and you will understand how much fun it can be to turn numbers and letters into cute little animals!
