How to Color This Page
At age 5+, children can start exploring layering and blending techniques. Try pressing lightly with colored pencils first, then adding a second layer for richer color. Markers are great for bold areas, while pencils work best for small details. Ask your child to plan their colors before starting — it's a great exercise in decision-making!
