How to Use This Resource in Your Classroom
Mindful coloring has been proven to reduce stress and anxiety in children (and adults!). These coloring pages can help calm students with “first-day jitters.”
When students finish their sheets, consider making a classroom collage with all the coloring pages to hang in your classroom or on a bulletin board.
✏️ Drawing Inspiration
Do you have students who are hesitant to participate in drawing activities? They either don’t think they’re good enough at drawing or can’t think of anything to create!
The funky designs on this coloring sheet are not just good for filling with color, and they’re also great for providing your students with some drawing inspiration!
