I was just looking at them for my niece before the holidays. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/los-that-are-super-into-drawingcoloring#post-2675162 Fri, 06 Jan 2017 10:30:10 +0000 honeybear 2675162@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Has she tried painting? I'd introduce watercolors. Cleanup isn't quite as involved with those. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/los-that-are-super-into-drawingcoloring#post-2675146 Fri, 06 Jan 2017 10:17:07 +0000 Mamaof2 2675146@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Bao: I would try out some acrylic paint and 8x10 canvases </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/los-that-are-super-into-drawingcoloring#post-2675037 Fri, 06 Jan 2017 07:57:39 +0000 HappyBaker 2675037@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My daughter is the same way! For Christmas she got big stencils that are awesome, so she can trace a shape, say a dog, and then color it in. She loves them! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/los-that-are-super-into-drawingcoloring#post-2675033 Fri, 06 Jan 2017 07:44:19 +0000 looch 2675033@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I bought my son several doodle pads, I don't know the official name for them, but they've got some preprinted designs on the page, like a window or a dinner plate and you fill it in. It's sparked some interest outside of his standard things he draws on his own. His favorite medium seems to be markers, I think he likes it best because he gets the boldest colors from it.</p> <p>I also provide a lot of stuff that can be used for collage, my son has kind of moved away from coloring and drawing to more dimensional work, so he uses things like tissue paper, washi tape, cardboard. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/los-that-are-super-into-drawingcoloring#post-2674656 Thu, 05 Jan 2017 18:14:14 +0000 autumnlove 2674656@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Chalk markers, crayons, colored pencils, boogie board and oil pastels. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/los-that-are-super-into-drawingcoloring#post-2674621 Thu, 05 Jan 2017 17:35:52 +0000 codeitall 2674621@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used to love those pencils/pens that had more than one color.

She loves it. It's always out and available to write on. It's spiral bound and was like $3.</p> <p>Oh and we got her a $1 pencil case and put new coloring pencils and crayons in there. She keeps this with the notebook and it works out well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/los-that-are-super-into-drawingcoloring#post-2674586 Thu, 05 Jan 2017 16:59:30 +0000 Bao 2674586@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What materials do you give them to keep things interesting? </p> <p>My 4 year old draws/colors all the time, on regular white paper or in coloring books. She has markers, crayons, colored pencils and dot markers. I feel like I should get her something more to expand her collection, since she is drawing SO much. What are some fun items I could get specifically for drawing/coloring? </p>
