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. Â 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. Â So, we look for something new to colour. Â This helps me out and helps the kids out, too. Â We wander down to the computer and set out , together, to find some images that the kids might like to colour. Â The kids decide what they want to search for and we search in Google Images for cartoon image of their object of choice. Â Once they see all the choices that are there, they pick which they would like to colour. Â 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!
