It's January! Wells, it's almost January. As I write this post, it is actually New Year's Eve here in the southeastern region of the United States, but I'm preparing for all the fun stuff ahead for the new year, particularly January. I have lots of snow themed activities to share with you on my Facebook page for the first week in January. We will be doing polar bear activities in the second week, and then on to penguin fun. Today, I want to share with you a new file I just finished. It's hot off the press, so to speak. Introducing my new Snowman Coloring Book for Kids.
Coloring is good for kids. Coloring helps children improve small motor skills. Coloring keeps children focused on one activity for a long period of time, helping to improve attention spans, especially kids who particularly enjoy coloring. Coloring in coloring books helps improve creativity.
Coloring is great for other areas of development as well. Coloring helps children build relationships when they color together. Completing coloring pages together builds teamwork skills when children share pages and crayons. This activity might even help improve negotiating skills as children discuss which colors to use and which colors compliment other colors.
Children might stumble upon a science lesson when they discover that some colors, when combined, create new colors.
Coloring can be a great way to spend time as a family. Pull out coloring books, crayons, markers, watercolors, and tempera paints. Set a few hours aside to build and improve on all the skills above while enjoying hours of quality time together as a family.

Snowman Coloring Book for Kids - Practice Color Words
This Snowman Coloring Book includes a total of 7 pages, a cover page plus 6 pages for your child or classroom children to color. Your kids will first follow the one step direction on each page. For example, on the first coloring page, the one step direction says, "Color the snowman's scarf red."
At the end of each one step direction on each page is an image of the crayon color to match the direction. This will help your child to identify the correct color. The color word is written on each crayon image as well as in the one step direction so your child can practice identifying color words and matching the color to the color word. The color words to practice in this coloring book are red, orange, black, blue, purple, and green.
Here is one page I'll offer you for free. Simply right-click and save this page to your computer. Then, print it out for your child to color. Of course, I hope you will consider the complete 7 page coloring book that you'll find here.
