5 ways to make coloring more inviting

Five simple ways to create a pleasant creative moment without pressure or complicated supplies.

Coloring works best when it stays enjoyable. A few simple choices can turn it into a moment everyone looks forward to.

Start with a drawing they like

Animals, flowers, vehicles or abstract shapes: the right drawing is the one that immediately makes someone want to pick a color. Let them choose, even if it is not your first choice.

Prepare a small palette

Five or six colors prevent too many options from getting in the way. You can always add another one later.

Keep sessions short

Ten minutes can be enough. It is better to stop while the desire to continue is still there than to turn coloring into a task.

Welcome every combination

A green sky or a purple fish are good news: imagination is taking over.

Display or print the result

Exporting the page and hanging it up, giving it away or adding it to a notebook gives the creative moment a satisfying finish.
