Coloring books are definitely the latest and
greatest fad. They are calming and encourage
creativity. I, myself have always enjoyed
coloring and find it very relaxing. The one
problem with the store bought coloring pages
is they can be really hard! They take a long
time to complete and they can be very
intricate. That being said, I have created some
pages with bolder lines, larger spaces and just
generally easier to finish. Here are two free
sample pages from the Simple Lines, Shapes
and Design Coloring
Pages download. Practice prewriting strokes and shapes with these coloring
pages. The children can simply color in the different lines and shapes using
crayons, markers or paints. The dark black background helps the children to see
how to stay within the lines or shapes. If mistakes are made, the errors are not as
noticeable so it may help to decrease frustration in children who have difficulty
coloring. Compared to traditional coloring pages that you find in the stores, these
patterns will be completed much faster and are not nearly as intricate.
