[quote=Anonymous]I think OP's issue is with the pre-printed coloring pages (like from store-bought coloring books), not with the activity of coloring. There are actually lots of people who say allowing kids to "free color/draw" rather than providing those pre-printed coloring sheets is much better for creativity, etc. And you'd be surprised at how many daycare teachers are encouraging 2 and 3 year olds to color in the lines..or coloring for them so that they can be sent home. My son's preschool uses coloring sheets a lot and truthfully, I wish they'd just give the kids blank scrap paper to draw on. BUT, I do agree that this is not a big enough deal to worry about or really talk to the preschool about. It is what it is, and at least they are coloring! Plus, kids sometimes like these pre-drawn pictures...even if we don't always.[/quote]
