Give your kids an aspiration, a dream house in the form of toys or something like that and show your kids how to do it by simply encouraging and doing it together and make sure you do it happily and with rewards.

Try to let the child play with the software and have some fun ! Maybe draw some maps about the school and the community , even a map for treasure hunting . Most importantly , let the kids know that the software is just a tool for life ! Just enjoy !

i think AutoCAD is defficult for kids althought they can learn the basic commands like lines and circles and hatching

and to do that they need to be in a suitable age.

First of all, the kids must have interest in AutoCAD and try to increase his interest in it.

Then try to teach him/her the basics of AutoCAD by drawing simple objects like circle, triangle, square. Then teach him to draw irregular shapes.

When he/she has learned the basics and has developed interest in AutoCAD then try to tell him/her the usefulness of this software and which type of things can be drawn using this software.

At the end ask him to visit different websites and watch tutorials.

Tutorials will definitelt help them to enhance their interest and learn AutoCAD.

I believe that some softwares like MS Office, Autocad should be started to teach kids at school level. This is easy to teach them,

1) Give them one basic command orally in one day and let them do pratice pratically for next few days until they grip it.

2) By this way when they learn a few basic comands then they should be couraged by giving them small assignments to do practically.

There should be no age limit for kids to teach them. If kids are taught properly, they will never waste time like in facebook, whatapp etc.

First of all you should have creat interest of kids in paint because it is a basic regarding lines, square box etc. Another thing is to draw a map of square buildings on paper.
