Anatomically Correct Self Portrait


"This Is Me"
by Little Snail

Little Snail went to Wally World, got a pink pencil case, some new markers and crayons and has blossomed into drawing wonderful things. This is her self portrait. And that thing down there....well, lets just say she has an attention for detail. She likes to include ALL of her body parts.

Um, yeah. I framed it.

That is so darling. I love little kids' early drawings. They are my favorite!

That's awesome! Gerrick went through a LONG phase of always drawing boys and men with a penis, but I've never seen a girl do this. :D Ha! Ha! Love it!

I also have a framed anatomically correct portrait that my son created of me. Unfortunately he was in public school at the time and yes, shared it with the whole class. The teacher called me at home quite upset. I don't think she appreciated my laughter.

That's hilarious! :) Laurianna used to draw boys with bumps between their legs - cracked us up!

Ha ha! I love it when they draw pics! Kids really do some funny things! My kids did something similar not long ago! :)

How could you not frame that. I also framed Savvy's first drawings - ohh the pride!

The slippin and slidin took me back to my childhood. Many a weekend was spent doing this. Your children looked like they were having a blast.

I thought it was a picture of you!!! I have seen some funny kids drawings this week of their mom. I need to go look if my kids made one of me when they were little. I save most of their art.

I found you at the mommy bloggers site. I clicked follow :-)

I love first and early drawings! They are always so cute and beautiful. This is a good one to bring out when she's 18!

My favorite portrait my now 6 year old drew when she was 3 or 4 of a "boy robot with a penis" (that was the title she told me to write on it!) and a "girl robot with boobs and a gina" yup...that's my girl! :) I've got them in all their glory in her preschool scrap book.

So cute! You guys already started school? That was fast!

I gave you an award on my blog.

That is too cute! My daughter sees no problem with talking about ALL her body parts in the middle of wal-mart! She doesn't understand why I'd be embarrassed that she loudly yelled about how her underwear are uncomfortable on her "down there." :)

My son did that too! I had him in a preschool a couple days a week when he was 4 yrs old. One day they traced their entire bodies. Then they had to draw themselves in the tracing. Every kid had some snazzy little outfit drawn, but not my little guy. Nope he insisted on drawing his body without clothes. I think he was taking an anatomically correct direction. It included the parts down there... and yes, I save it too.... :-)

Last summer all of the neigbourhood kids were outside tracing each other with chalk on the sidewalk. The child would then draw their eyes, nose mouth, etc. Well my son (3 at the time) drew a very large detailed package on his chalk outline. I was reading a book and didn't notice until my next door neighbour was leaving her house and stopped to admire all the kids artwork (at my son's request).

Perfect! I love how kids have no sense of shame and they shouldnt! Kids make the whole world a much easier place to live!

Before you take my images, you'd better ask me first. I request that if, and when, you use my information and pictures, you provide proper credit and citation. A link back to my blog is nice, too. I love to give permission to really nice people. In fact, I have never said no. If you steal anything from my site, I get to be mean to you. Really mean. And I am smart enough to catch you being sneaky, too.
