Some of the greatest conversations with children can happen over a good clean coloring book of fun. It is something that the whole family can get into and it can last as short or as long as you wish the time to last.

Watching the colors the children pick to color their pictures gives you a little insight to their world. Some will chose dark colors that reflect fear or sadness. While others are out there making people of the rainbow with big happy smiles. The pictures can reflect moods or simply just their most favorite color for that day.

Finding out what each child likes is also a good thing. Then you can match their interests up with a favorite coloring book of their own.

Our windows are always full of colorful pictures reflecting the holidays. I get very excited when a child makes a special page just for me. I proudly display it like it is a Masterpiece of Fine Art Work. Which to me it is.

For a child to do this for you. It means they have thought about you and wanted to please you. So with each picture they draw you are a clearer reflection in their life.

So if you want some good family fun pick up some Christmas coloring books and a big pack of crayons.
I think you will be pleasantly suprised by the quality family time you will enjoy.
