Benefits of Colouring In
Colouring in is cheap, readily available and a very beneficial education tool.
Colouring in develops fine motor skills. Hand/eye coorindation through the use of pens and pencils is essential to hand writing. Colouring In comes before hand writing. In colouring in, we teach the child correct pencil grip and whilst they are playing (colouring in) their small, intricate muscles of the hands, fingers, wrists and the larger muscle groups in the arms are being developed and strengthened. The pincer grip (thumb and first finger) is essential for penmanship and many other skills later in life.
Colouring in can stimulate creative thinking! We can see how a child is feeling at the moment or about certain topics simply by observing their colouring – their use of colours, stroke, etc. Some children talk, others write and others children prefer the expressiveness of art. Colouring in develops and encourages colour awareness and allows people to express themselves with different colours and colour combinations.
Colouring in can be a way of relaxing – getting that ‘down time’. It can be safer for a vulnerable child as many find drawing their own image to be very daunting (I’m putting my hands up here!) but they can still get all the benefits of art without the pressure of creating from scratch.
Colouring in can develop concentration or the Habit of Attention. Learning to give one’s attention to one task and see it through to completion is an important skill that is essential for further learning.
Colouring In can be a fun, cheap, practical tool we use in our homeschool to assist us in fostering a sense of success & accomplishment which is imperative to further education and learning.
