Our Review
Every child is an artist at heart, and fostering creativity from a young age is essential for cognitive and emotional development. Big Drawing Book for Kids Ages 3–8 by Engr Sazid Hasan Milon is more than just a sketch pad—it’s a gateway to boundless imagination. Designed as a blank canvas for toddlers, preschoolers, and young artists, this book encourages doodling, drawing, and sketching in a fun, stress-free environment.
But is it just another drawing book, or does it stand out in a crowded market of children’s activity books? After spending time with this book (and watching my little ones dive into it), I can confidently say it’s a must-have for parents and educators who want to nurture creativity in kids.
Unlike structured activity books with rigid prompts, this Big Drawing Book is intentionally blank, giving children the freedom to create without limitations. Here’s what makes it special:
- Large, High-Quality Pages (8.5" x 11") – Ample space for tiny hands to sketch freely.
- Thick, Durable Paper – Resists tears and bleed-through from markers or crayons.
- Simple, Distraction-Free Design – No pre-drawn shapes or restrictive guidelines.
- Encourages Free Expression – Kids can draw anything from scribbles to detailed scenes.
This book isn’t about teaching techniques (there are no step-by-step instructions) but rather about boosting confidence and creativity through unstructured play.
- Toddlers (Ages 3-5) – Perfect for early scribbling and motor skill development.
- Young Artists (Ages 6-8) – Great for kids who love drawing and storytelling.
- Parents & Educators – A fantastic tool for encouraging artistic expression at home or in classrooms.
If you’re looking for a structured "how to draw" book, this isn’t it—but if you want a stress-free, open-ended creative outlet, this sketchbook delivers.
Since this is a blank sketchbook, there’s no traditional "writing style," but the design philosophy is worth discussing. The book avoids clutter—no distracting borders, no pre-filled characters, just pure white space. This minimalist approach:
✔ Reduces Overstimulation – Helps kids focus on their own ideas.
✔ Encourages Originality – No templates mean no "right" or "wrong" way to draw.
✔ Builds Confidence – Kids feel proud of their unique creations.
The only text is a brief, encouraging introduction (likely for parents) reinforcing the idea that art is about fun, not perfection.
Beyond just being a sketchbook, this book subtly promotes key developmental benefits:
- Fine Motor Skills – Gripping crayons and controlling strokes improves dexterity.
- Emotional Expression – Drawing helps kids communicate feelings they can’t yet verbalize.
- Problem-Solving – Deciding what to draw fosters decision-making skills.
In a world where kids are often overloaded with structured activities, this book offers a rare pressure-free creative space.
I tested this book with my 4-year-old niece and 7-year-old nephew, and their reactions were fascinating:
- The 4-year-old treated it like an adventure, filling pages with wild, colorful scribbles.
- The 7-year-old used it as a storytelling tool, drawing comic-style sequences.
What stood out was how different their approaches were—proof that this book adapts to each child’s developmental stage.
Most kids’ drawing books fall into two categories:
- Instructional (e.g., "How to Draw Animals") – Great for skill-building but can feel restrictive.
- Pre-Decorated (e.g., Coloring Books) – Fun but limit originality.
This book is different—it’s pure freedom. The closest comparison might be a blank artist’s sketchpad, but this one is kid-friendly in size and durability.
✔ High-Quality Paper – Holds up to markers, crayons, and light paints.
✔ Encourages Independence – Kids don’t need adult guidance to enjoy it.
✔ Gender-Neutral & Inclusive – No stereotypical themes (e.g., no "for boys/girls" labels).
- No Prompts – Some kids might need a little inspiration to start.
- No Spiral Binding – A lay-flat design would make drawing easier.
(Note: The lack of prompts is intentional—some kids thrive with total freedom, while others might need a parent to suggest ideas.)
If you want a no-frills, high-quality sketchbook that lets kids explore art their way, this is a fantastic choice. It’s especially great for:
- Parents who want to reduce screen time with hands-on creativity.
- Teachers looking for an open-ended art activity.
- Gift-givers who want something different from typical coloring books.
- How do you encourage creativity in your child?
- Do you prefer structured art activities or free drawing? Why?
- What’s the most surprising thing your child has drawn?
Drop your thoughts in the comments—I’d love to hear how your little artists use this book!
A simple yet brilliant tool for nurturing young imaginations. Highly recommended!
