  Abstract:  The search for the image of God through the childrenʼs drawings was introduced in 1944 by Harms. He highlighted the cognitive factor. Later, in 1996, Hanisch focused on religious education. In 1999, Landy spoke of the cultural factor and 2000, Klein focused on gender differences. Finally, in 2009, Brandt and colleagues proposed a search for the image of God in children taking into account the four factors set out above. The main focus of this article will be the introduction of social psychology of cognitive development; the presentation of the cognitive characteristics of children by taking into account the evolution of the drawing in children; analysis of the stages of religious development and early research on the image of God in children.

Keywords: God, cognitive development, children, religion.
