I question some of the interpretations of children's drawings, though perhaps on an average and in younger children it is accurate enough. As they age however, I think it becomes too random, as it depends on what kinds of drawing "lessons" the child has learned in life.

When I was young I never understood why children and several adults when asked to draw a house always did it with a βchimneyβ, when in my native country, 99% of the houses have NO chimneyβ¦ It is curious the power of the first world countries through television. Here in Canada, no child draws a house without a chimney, even the buildings are painted with one. Does it have something to do with the science of Santa CLOUS coming in through chimneys?
