My
five year old daughter and I sat down this afternoon to test out the
new coloring book. The pages are set so that mom and child can sit
opposite each other and the child can work on one page while mom does
the other. Well, we decided we wanted to share a page and work
together. After about thirty minutes of us both coloring, we nearly
completed the page. She said the background should be colored in,
but she was tired of coloring. (And truthfully, thirty minutes was
plenty for me too.) I was beyond pleased with the experience. We
talked, we colored, we made up stories, we spent time together. There
were smiles, thoughts, and a bright coloring page to remind us of it
all.
Of
course, I can not leave out my two year old daughter who also likes
to color and it occurred to me that this would be a great morning
activity since she gets usually gets up at least an hour earlier than
her older sister. Entertaining my young child while starting the day
with a relaxing activity.... I'm looking forward to trying that out
tomorrow morning....
