Disney cartoon characters to draw

All kids like to color, but there are important reasons to encourage and guide this activity beyond the simple hedonistic impetus to have fun. Coloring Builds Fine Motor Skills – Perhaps the biggest benefit children get from coloring pages of animals or their favorite cartoon characters is the development of fine motor skills. This includes learning the proper way to hold the crayon, marker or colored pencil they are using to draw with. When supervising young children learning how to color use gentle instructions to encourage them to hold the writing implement near the tip, cradled between the tips of their thumb, index finger and middle finger. Many children grab the crayon in their fist. Correcting this improper usage is an important first step towards real penmanship.

The best aspect of coloring sheets is that they are made available to the kids mostly free of cost and with ease too. All you are required to get these printable free coloring pages is to click on some website and print the copies to distribute them to kids at home or at school for coloring. Since there are a huge variety of coloring pictures available, you do not have to give the same picture to the kids. So each kid has a different picture to color. Thus, it can be concluded that coloring books meet the kids’ need of expressing themselves creatively and no one has to spend money on getting the pictures for coloring.

The Choices in online Children`s Coloring pages : At some websites you`ll find the basic children`s coloring pages that can be printed and colored by hand with crayons, colored pencils, and whatever else. However, you can also find websites that offer interactive coloring pages that require you child to work on the computer itself to fill in the images with colors. Often times, these interactive coloring pages are part of an entire online community and the pages are just one of many things available to do on the website.

It's hard nowadays to find ways to get your kids, especially boys to sit down and work on something. Harder still to find something you can do with them and really take part in and contribute to. This is a fantastic thing you can do today to bond with your son and I really recommend it. Oh and it doesn't hurt that its really cheap to do!
