When a child visits a pediatric neurologist with bad headaches, some doctors will have the child draw a picture the headache. These drawings can be surprisingly telling about the cause of the headaches, especially when the child suffers from migraine. The following video shows pictures that children have drawn of their own migraine headaches.

Having been a teacher in Elementary schools, this video looks very promising. I should think that having children draw how they feel would be particularly helpful to Elementary school nurses in diagnosing headache problems in their young patients.
