Dessin d'enfant

"Dessin d'enfant" means "children's drawing" in French. When you're a kid, you might like to draw pictures of things that you see or imagine, using crayons, markers, or pencils.

Dessin d'enfant can be very simple, with lines and shapes that show a person, animal, or object. It can be very colorful, with many different colors used to fill in the drawing. Sometimes, kids might not draw things the way they actually look in real life, and that's okay! It's just their imagination.

As you get older, your dessin d'enfant might become more complex and detailed. You might start to add shading or use different types of materials to create your art. But no matter how advanced your drawing skills become, dessin d'enfant is always a special part of your childhood.
