This week, I would love to share regarding to “Coloring Fun with Toddler“:

Hint:

Large chunky crayons are designed to fit small hands and give them more control over their artwork.
Wide line drawings help your toddler in enhancing their coloring skills.
Fun characters and shapes plus vibrant colors make them fun for both parent and toddler.

Step by step guide:

Step 1:
Introduce your kiddies to selection type of coloring materials by guiding ‘em with weekly different art projects.
Step 2:
Demonstrate how to use crayon/pencil color in a simple method.
Show your lil toddler on how to use the coloring material.
Hold it firmly in your palm, and show him/her how to draw on a piece of paper.
Help him/her hold it himself/herself, and encourage him/her to try it on his/her own.
Step 3:
Let him/her be creative. Once he gets the hang of drawing, let him experiment with the different color combinations.

Step 4:
Praise your lil toddler when he/she writes/draws on the paper, and help correct him/her if he/she tries to put the crayon in his/her mouth or draw on the table or chair.

Step 5:
Put on their artwork at their own room as “Wall of Fame”

Notes:

If he doesn’t get it right away don’t get disappointed or pushy. Toddlers notice things quickly, but also have very short attention spans.
Keep the work time to a minimum and the workspace friendly and inviting.
Always use verbal cues so your toddler learns to associate the names with the shapes and objects you are drawing.
Don’t spend too much time “teaching.” Play games and make it about coloring the pictures. Have fun with this project.
