When I was a little girl, one of my favorite things to do was color. I still remember how special I felt when my parents bought me the Crayola box of 96 colors with the built-in sharpener in the back. I memorized all of the crayon names - "robin's egg blue", "macaroni and cheese", and "purple mountain's majesty" being my favorites. (Here is a fun little fact-page on the their names over the years.) And yes, I was totally the brat that pulled out the tin of old/broken/fat crayons when hyper friends visited, keeping the special box of 96 sacred and sharp. If I went out to dinner with grown-ups and brought a coloring book, I'd sit and color page by page, remaining completely transfixed and occupied for hours. I even daydream about making personalized coloring sheets and books if I have kids one day...
What's the point of this rant, you ask?
People need to color more!
....kids, adults, tweens, YOU.
So that's your homework. Stop to smell the roses and stop to color a pretty picture. Don't have a coloring book handy? Don't think you have the skill to draw yourself a picture to color even though you totally do?
