Coloring with Crayons on the wall

We recently did a markers and crayons coloring activity. This time we did it on a larger scale and so decided to put it on the wall. I mention it as 'We', because it was an activity for me too. Lol!😁

What we used:

• Paper (I've kept some Kraft paper Amazon puts in their boxes and used few sheets for this activity)
• Markers
• Crayons
• Sticky Tape

I helped LO to stick the paper to the wall using the sticky tape and my activity actually began!

Part 1:

I drew biggy biggy ABCs on the paper... Of course, none of our activities are without Alphas! LO couldn't restrain from disturbing me, and some how I kept him diverted before I completed the Z.

Then I thought I would draw a picture relating each Alpha, and so I drew the very easy "A for Apple"! But LO stopped me and said "Amma, Vehicles", and continued "B for Bus". I said ok and drew the bus. It was bit easy till I finished the car and dump truck. He said "E for Excavator" and I wasn't comfortable with it, so from then on sought the help of internet and somehow completed till "P for Pumpkin". I took a break wherein he started to do his coloring. For many I skipped the vehicles and I'm sure he wasn't disappointed. 

Then I gave him the Crayons and he started to color the Alphas and completed in a jiffy!

He couldn't reach to the top so he tried changing hands! he he...😊

He became so excited as that was his first coloring activity on wall!

Again, after a break, from 'Q', I drew pictures till 'Z' and most pictures were LO's choice.

We reserved the rest of the space for another day.

Part 2:

After a week LO wanted to color on the 'wall paper', so my sketching started again!

I drew random pictures with simple words, so that LO would get some in-sight into sight words.

Check out the pictures for the words.

This is a great activity for kids. Mess free and I would say cheap activity with limited supplies available at home.

You can draw some of your kids favorite pictures or give them the paint and brush, let them do a free style art work!

Happy Parenting!😊
