[QUOTE="nlj, post: 676681, member: 17650"] I hope you're keeping in the lines COM. [URL]http://dreamingaloud.net/2011/01/keeping-inside-the-lines-why-colouring-in-dominates-early-years-education-and-what-we-can-do-about-it/[/URL] My son had strong negative views about 'colouring in', even as a young child. He viewed it as being all about conformity, although he couldn't vocalise that as such at that age. He wanted to draw his own pictures. Your post made me remember that. I think as adults though it can be therapeutic to be constrained by some else's drawing and by having to keep in the lines. Maybe it's a matter of personality, as my daughters were quite happy to do colouring-in. Interesting ... [/QUOTE]
