Racine Kids Art: Young architect shares house drawing

While working at the JT, one of my favorite additions to the paper was a daily kids' drawing on the Glad You Asked column. It was a really popular feature that attracted hundreds of drawings from kids throughout Racine.

I'd like to start something similar here. If your children have a drawing they'd like to share, take a picture or scan it and send it: racinepost@gmail.com

We'll kickoff the new feature with a drawing from 8-year-old Niko Tousis, a second-grader at The Prairie School. His parents write that Niko has been drawing houses since he was around 3. He started drawing houses after visiting construction sites as a toddler.


Thanks, Niko! Have a child's drawing you'd like to share? Send it to: racinepost@gmail.com

    Drawing for kids is a wonderful and creative activity that not only entertains but also nurtures a child's imagination and fine motor skills. It's a means for young minds to express themselves, explore their ideas, and bring their fantasies to life on paper. Whether it's using colorful crayons, markers, or paint, drawing allows children to experiment with shapes, colors, and textures while developing their cognitive abilities. Moreover, it encourages self-confidence and can be a source of pride when they see their creations come to fruition. Drawing for kids is a gateway to a world of endless possibilities, fostering a love for art and helping them communicate their thoughts and emotions in a unique and delightful way.
