Kids have a natural inclination to understand the concept of symmetry. They will often seek out symmetry in the form of order and balance in their world.

You can see them arranging toys and other objects into lines, rows or patterns. The idea of symmetry comes naturally at a young age, even if the concept isn’t fully developed.

Introducing Kids to the Concept of Symmetry

When giving the symmetry drawing activity worksheets to kids, explain that they just need to draw the other half of the image, using the given side as an example.

Once they have completed the worksheets (or at least a few of them) is the perfect time to then explain the meaning of the word symmetry. 

building as an example of symmetry

Explain that something is symmetrical when it is the same on both sides. An image or shape has symmetry if a central dividing line (a line down the center) show that both sides of the line are exactly the same.

Another explanation of the concept is if the two sides of a picture are mirror-image halves. Using lightweight paper, if you fold the page in half along the dividing line you can then hold it up to the light and see that both sides match.
