For parents who are struggling to find an interesting way to celebrate spring this year with their young children, at last there is a solution. Welcome Spring into your home by using some of these festive Spring-themed coloring pages that you can find online.
All you have to do is go to the website, select the picture that your child wants to color, and then print it out. Here is a short list of some websites that provide coloring pages:
There’s no reason your child should just have to settle for boring old crayons and pictures, when you can spice it up a little! Providing a wide variety of coloring implements such as crayons, colored pencils, markers and paints will help your child to better enjoy themselves as they can pick and choose which materials they like to use more.
If you’re worried about the mess that sometimes can be made from paints or markers, then you can go to The Color, which is a website that lets your child “color” the picture using a simple painting tool, where you click the color you’d like and then click on the section of the picture you want to “color. It also gives you the option of printing out the picture, either in full color, or a blank copy for your child to use later. This type of “coloring” is a somewhat nice alternative when you don’t want to worry that your child is coloring on things he or she shouldn’t.
If having your child just color on the computer is something that you don’t feel comfortable with, or if you have a large group of children to entertain, Crayola provides a simple and enjoyable way to incorporate color and matching skills with a Coloring Bingo activity. The rules are similar to the classic Bingo game, where you need to have five matching spots in a row, but with a slight and interesting twist, that makes it easy and fun for you child to play.
To play Coloring Bingo, first you need to print out the picture boards from the website. One of these boards will be cut up and the squares should be placed in a hat or bowl and mixed up. Then, as you draw them out one at a time, the person who has the matching picture should color it in on their board. The first person to get five matching squares in a row or at a diagonal wins.
Using these websites to help enhance your child’s coloring experience is a simple way to celebrate Spring this year. For more coloring or craft ideas, you can visit Crayola On line, or do a keyword search in any Internet search engine.
