Creative Colouring

The skill of colouring

Colouring is a skill developed in a child’s early years. This skill can be applied in many ways. The skill of colouring can lead to conceptual development of various areas of the curriculum as well as many hours of enjoyment. When using the designs in the Creative Colouring blackline master, children should be encouraged to follow these steps.
