Kindergarteners have a lot of fun with drawing lines, especially if you make it into a game. I go over different types of lines with them, making lines with our arms and finding lines in the room. Then, I give them paper, and ask them to draw a certain kind of line.
One catch is to make sure they draw from one side of the paper to the other ("Make the ends of your lines touch the sides of your paper!") and switch colors after every line! Then they get to paint using watercolor, and they turn out really beautiful. It's awesome how even really young kids seem to have this great ability to use color and sense what looks good together.
