End of the Year December Colouring Sheet

That marks 12 colouring sheets in total here now so you should have a full year if you want to sit down and pull all the months of the calendar year together.

Participating in the arts or just appreciating them activates different parts of the brain from other forms of education interaction, and it’s really quite beautiful. My oldest daughter is an artist, and she’s always buried in either her sketch pad or an art book.
