This study aimed to analyze the occurrence of social interactions among children of different ages during four drawing situations (with crayons or gouache, individually and in group). Twenty-eight boys and girls from a daycare in São Carlos-SP, Brazil, between two to five years of age, participated in the study and were divided in four groups according to age. A total of four hours of video recording were transcribed. Identified interactions were classified according to a system of categories. The main results indicate the occurrence of 728 interactions, with higher frequency among 4-year-old children and lower frequency among 2-year-old; more interactions occurred in the majority of groups in the gouache/group condition and a lower frequency of interaction occurred in the crayons/individually condition; the interactive categories that stood out the most were Description and Imitation and Plot was the least frequent category. This study evidenced that drawing promotes a variety of social interactions among children.
