Have you ever sat back and really thought about how much fun you really do have when you are sitting down coloring with your kids? If you are like most adults you might simply shrug it off and not really pay that much attention to this; yet there quite a few adults that really embrace that creative side and decide to express it by drawing or painting as either a hobby or a profession. If you are one of the really creative people you are likely to take that next step and simply make your creative passions work for you. This is something that many people really never give that much thought to as kids; or maybe those kids that became well known artists always knew that they wanted to share their creativity with the world. It is kind of amazing when you really think about the fact that just sitting there coloring either by yourself or with your kids really can make a big difference in your life.

More than just as a stress reliever - Coloring is being used in formal therapeutic settings such as eye-hand coordination development and to help heal victims of trauma. Regardless of your needs, there is so much to be gained by spending some time coloring.

Just like reading stories in picture/illustrated books with their children, parents often use coloring pages to teach children and stretch their imagination. Standard coloring pages provide outlines within which children can color, but some art educators believe that free-form pages are an even better tool. A good example of these coloring books can be found at CreativeColoringBooks.

We have yet to discuss comfort that your child will be studying the different colors as they color their pages. And the even more exposure your child has to coloration, the more they will learn about the usual colors of objects, and they will begin to choose specific shades for specific items, just like red apples, or oriental leaves. And, as they grow old, you will also begin to see that they will color animals the color that they can truly are. This may seem to be obvious to somebody who has noted their colors since they recall, but you had to learn that at some point and this is a great method for your child to learn theirs.
