Some days, the usual appeal of colouring in their colouring books just doesn’t cut it with my kids and I want to make it special and different for them.  The colouring books (of which we have too many, of course) are the same as they always are and the felts are the same, too.  So, we look for something new to colour.  This helps me out and helps the kids out, too.  We wander down to the computer and set out , together, to find some images that the kids might like to colour.  The kids decide what they want to search for and we search in Google Images for cartoon image of their object of choice.  Once they see all the choices that are there, they pick which they would like to colour.  I just print it out in grayscale, so that there is no colour, and set them up to go!

Today, we have a bee, a bear and a puppy!
