Abstract

Many researches have been carried out on the pictures the children have drawn. Having an idea about the child persists on being able to control developmental characteristics. The drawing technique is a therapy tool that facilitates communication and enhances expression skills. Since children's verbal skills are not fully developed yet, they can reflect their emotions and thoughts by drawing. By getting information from the child by talking on the picture, clearer information is obtained. The pictures that the child draws, whether aware or not, leave traces of emotions and thoughts. The developmental stages of children's pictures follow the sequence: 2-4 years of scribble age, 4-7 years of pre-schema age, 7-9 years of schematic age, 9-12 years of realism age, 12-14 years of apparent naturalism age. This article is aimed at understanding the purpose pre-school (playful) children through the pictures they have made and helping them psycho-social. Literature search method was used in the article. As a result, it has been seen that the method of image analysis is a natural and effective method to understand pre-school children and solve their problems.
