"Que dessinent les enfants?"
This question relates to:French lesson "Inverted questions in the present tense (Le Présent) in French - with names/things/emphasis"

Hi Emre can,
Que in this usage is an object.
"Les enfants dessinent what?" So as a simple inversion "Que dessinent les enfants?"
"What are the children drawing?"
Hope this helps.
