Antonia W. 30 months

Open the conversation about toddler art by describing what you see. “You made lots of orange dots! I see a few purple dots, too, and four black ones.” How do you think Antonia will reply to your observation?

Zara E. 35 Months

Variety is Zara’s forte! She makes dots, circles, arcs, and even a nautilus—all in a line across the middle of the page. Her frequent color changes indicate that she deliberately planned her design.

Derek T. 36 Months

Albert Einstein, move over! Wild hair is the hallmark of this lively self-portrait. Lots of straight lines, two curves, three circles—and a family treasure is ready for framing! Why not pair it with a photo of Derek’s face?
