Children are full of fantasy and possess of sheer endless abilities to imagine wondrous sceneries, monsters, heroes and everything else they like. But when we adults look at their drawings, even though it might be a good effort, often we cannot really see everything in that much detail. We lost the ability to understand a conceptual drawing and sometimes we just pretend that we saw something. When that happens we just ask the kids something like “And what did you draw now? Is that a princess?” Or we say something similar to hide the fact that we didn’t see anything in all those colors, lines and circles. We don’t want to upset them just because we lost so much of our fantasy.
