When a child combines drawing with thinking and planning--he uses both sides of his brain. Brains need exercise, LOL! Your little boy sounds very clever. My son used to design stuff like that--now he's a computer programmer.Mom2furhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09919967314390699344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12364613.post-1142356092076585442006-03-14T11:08:00.000-06:002006-03-14T11:08:00.000-06:00Loved the drawing!

All our children will not grow up to be artists, but we do want them to be problem solvers and art develops a penchant for this.

Don't ask me how this conclusion was reached!<BR/>ConnieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
