My 7yo DS very much enjoy drawing. He does gets frustrated when he thinks it is not up to his standard though.
As I type I am unsure what I am looking for...
For example last night I gave him a step by step fun drawing book and after half an hour he came downstairs in tears that it was impossible and how he would never manage to draw well ... Full blown tantrum...
I don't know whether 1) he is being unreasonable and 2) whether I should find a drawing class for him.
I did explain to him that he needs to practice etc but still he was unhappy.
Also I can't find drawing classes for 7 yo. Only art classes (which he loves already).
Finally, if drawing was really his thing, shouldn't he work out how to draw by himself? At what point external support should come in?
