Summer Reading Coloring Pages

Occasionally, you'll find official cartoon or TV character sites (such as PBS programs) will make available coloring pages for free to their fans. And there are many other sites that distribute coloring pages of those copyrighted characters. Sounds like dangerous legal ground ...but, surprisingly, I've never heard of any of these sites being prosecuted for copyright infringement. So they'll probably continue to make them available.

Coloring pages can provide richness by providing pictures of numbers, letters, animals, and text, so that your child will broaden their knowledge in a number of areas. Your child will receive the greatest educational benefit when the coloring internet pages bring all of these elements collectively, such as when there is a picture of an animal with it has the name written on the webpage, or when numbers are shown with the name in the number written out, or even a two-sided coloring page with 1 side showing the standard, number or word, and the other side of the web page depicting an animal whose form resembles the letter or perhaps number on the previous webpage. Take for example a coloring webpage that has a number one, along with a giraffe that is reminiscent of a number one in it's shape. Your child does not only have fun coloring the number and animal, but their lesson will also include writing the number one and being introduced to a giraffe.

Coloring Page Communities – Some websites offer very basic coloring pages for kids that can be printed off and colored. Others create interactive coloring pages that require children to work on the computer itself to color the images. Unlike the basic websites, the interactive coloring pages are often found on more complex websites that act as a full-fledged community. The coloring pages are only one of many things available to do on a particular site. On TheDollPalace.com, for example, dolls of every shape and size are available for children to play with and create, and then favorites are created into coloring pages. When dolls and coloring pages are complete, there are still interesting articles to read, personalities about the dolls to create, contests to take part in, and even forums and chats to visit to get to know other doll and coloring enthusiasts.

One of the greatest delights of childhood is one of the ones that starts very early for most kids – coloring.

The variety of them that are offered ensures that children of various ages can find something that they would be content with. In fact, you may feel good about composing a list of great sites where various online printable coloring pages can be found. The other option is just to type specifically what you are looking for into a search engine and it will bring up relevant pages to get it. With online printable coloring pages you never have to keep volumes of coloring books around. Most children change what they would like to color often. They bounce around from one theme or one set of characters to the next. Therefore they may abandon that coloring book with princesses or cars days after you buy it. Printing out the pages though allows them to always get what they want.

One disadvantage of printable pages in general is that they need paper, and as we know paper is made out of trees, and the planet needs trees to survive, but a good thing is that paper can also be recycled. In the near future, we’ll probably see more and more online coloring pages, but the feeling won’t be the same though. Well, if the coloring pages and books that Old People–those of us past the age of twenty-five–used back in the days before they invented weather and when we all knew what a telephone cord was are fading out of mind, they are being reborn on the Internet. Children’s coloring pages are all over the place online. A whole new dimension of coloring and drawing has been opened up with the advent of the Internet. When the Internet was still pretty new–anyone here old enough to remember those days? –only a few websites offered free, printable coloring pages, and most of these merely contained some rough sketches or produced teeny weeny pictures. But today one can find a multitude of websites from which you can print out high-quality coloring sheets on nearly any subject that you can imagine.
