I made these books a couple years ago when my oldest son started to color, because I wanted some more fun festive and quiet activity ideas. I added some other new pages I came across this year, and thought I would share the collection of my favorites from around the internet world (so far) with you!
My mom-in-law made us some awesome church themed ones and some learning ones that my kids have loved using in church, and so I of course loved them too because it kept them QUIET, BUSY, LEARNING, and then EASY CLEAN UP for me...as well as RE-USABLE time and time again. So I wanted to make some of my own and figured a Seasonal one would be awesome and fun all year round. Not only to learn the seasons, but also add some extra fun around the holidays ;)
If you didn't catch all those awesome reasons to make your kids one of these books...here they are below + more!
- Quiet
- Busy
- Learning
- Easy Clean-up
- Reusable
- Great GIFT idea
- Great for Travel/Portable
- great for wide range of ages
- Can hand out to kids in many settings (school, church, play group, parties, holidays...) *keep a binder of your collection and just make copies of the ones you want and the number you need and you can always have some festive ones on hand for whatever event that comes along!
- Can keep dry-erase crayons in the binder in a binder pencil pouch (keeps everything in one place)
- Doesn't cost a whole lot.
All of these things you can get at the dollar store, unless you opt to getting some more sturdy page protectors (as I have done).
Since you do want it to hold up for some time (dollar tree ones I have gotten in the past are the best quality for this kind of thing, but can still work)
Items Needed:
- Binder
- dry-erase crayons ( come with a rag to wipe away)
or just go grab yours at the dollar tree!
- binder pencil pouch (optional, although I like having it in the binder) Like this one below... (.78 at Toys R' Us) or grab one at the dollar tree!
- Page protectors (like these at Amazon.com 100 pk/$9.99)
- printable coloring pages (All mine are below!)
Here are the links to the sites where I collected my favorite seasonal Coloring pages to make my dry-erase book!
Some extra ones also added at the bottom :)
