• coordination of hand-eye movement,
• sensory (sensory perception: colors, textures of paints, paper),
• fine motor skills ("intelligence at your fingertips") - which includes important parts of the brain, including the speech center.
• And therefore speech develops!
• Imagination, fantasy also develops.
• If you draw with both hands (as children usually do, and do not interfere with it), this allows you to simultaneously develop and synchronize both the creative and logical hemispheres of the brain. This is how the beginnings of children's talent are established.
In the character of a child who regularly devotes himself to drawing, manifestations such as attention, thoroughness, patience and planning of the work process arise gradually and naturally.
Yes, from the earliest age (from 1 to 1.5 years), with love to teach a child to see the laws of mixing paints, their different intensities, to express moderation or, on the contrary, a statement, in the future will be easier to show the properties of the corresponding characters in communication with other people and the social sphere in general. This unconscious, but really experienced sensory experience, formed at the subconscious level, will surely be useful for the child in life, and then will bring benefits that can hardly be overestimated.
