The activity of the children's picture is a way to draw out the thinkings in their internal world. In the development of the children's picture, every stage has its own characteristics, as in the physical growth and mental development of human beings. The survey on the children's expressing way of drawing and the observation on their development of drawing were presented depending on their age, which enabled us to make the correct assessment about their pictures and the true understanding about them.
This study was done comparatively on age, specific character, composition, side, color, and shape according to the children's growing developmental stage.
The results have been drawn as follows;
1) The children's pictures were for the most part composed of lines resulting from the children's activities of body. However, these lines played an important role as activities of expression as children were getting older.
2) Most children expressed the shape by simple lines instead of the complicated lines. However, they could express in the concrete and free the shape in detail as they are growing in the body, as well as the intellect, and the sociality.
3) The development for observation was associated with the development of eyesight as children were getting older.
4) On the whole, Korean children showed earlier developmental stage of thinking and expressing the western countries children.
I wish that this study can help children understand in terms of the development of their pictures and at the same time will be useful for the children's education of fine art.
