If you’re needing some time to do some kid-free Christmas preparation, why not get the kids colouring? We set them up outside with some water colours, paintbrushes and some Christmas colouring 
pages. It went remarkably well with our 3 and 4 year old. They didn’t even want to stop for lunch! But best of all – there were no arguments! The water colours are easy to use and surprisingly muck-free.
When the paintings are dry we think they’ll make great presents for family, rolled up with a ribbon. They would also make nice wrapping paper or cards. Best of all, they will make some great print outs to take on the road these holidays, just add crayons…Christmas colouring pages here. Crayons and other travel activities available at Little Gulliver here.
