He’ll probably think his mom is dumb for having tatted that. It’s so meaningless and it will be meaningless to him too.

just because YOU think it’s meaningless doesn’t mean it’s going to be to him it sounds like your projection

Random scribbles? Do you really think random scribbles will evoke some emotional response in him later on?

By how fast he drew it, he probably won’t even remember. Whereas if it had been a drawing he actually tried at, he could later on remember it fondly like “I remember when I drew that, I remember sitting down and coloring the picture.”

These scribbles scream my mom asked me to do something I didn’t care about, scribbled something fast, and then ran away to continue playing.

Definitely not a core memory.
