Interest
The general education drawing program specifically highlights the theme “Fairytale Bird”. Children aged 8 years old attend the 2nd grade of secondary school - this is the optimal age for realizing fairy-tale fantasies. The child can already distinguish colors and their shades well, and is familiar with many techniques of drawing and making crafts.
The surest way to turn drawing not only into a useful, but also an exciting activity is to interest the child.
This can be done with a visual demonstration. Show children pictures, tell mythological stories of the peoples of the world and this will certainly stimulate their creativity. Pencils and paints, applications and figures will awaken the child's imagination.
Modern techniques are limitless - audio and video recordings can also be used in art lessons. They will help develop imagination and a sense of artistic taste.

Children usually love to portray living creatures, especially those that they can observe in nature. That's why the theme "Birds" is always popular with preschoolers. Many pupils of the preparatory group are able to accurately notice the characteristic features of different birds and convey them through drawing, harmoniously building a composition. The main thing for the teacher is to captivate the students, motivate them to be creative, and provide some interesting information that will additionally awaken interest in birds.
