Review on 🌈 Vibrant and Engaging: Melissa & Doug Jumbo 50-Page Coloring Wonder by Jerry Olson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Melissa and Doug do amazing things

I don't know about you, but I'm amazed at how hard it's gotten to find something that looks like an easy coloring book for kids. You know, nice big pictures where objects and characters are just outlines that kids can color in with crayons? For some reason 80% of the coloring books available even in toy stores are now "adult" coloring books that contain tiny gaps in the form of mandala-like arrangements intended to be filled in with artistic quality colored pencils, apparently as a form of art Therapy. Somehow the kids were in trouble. And even the few real children's coloring books you can find are usually themed (like all Disney characters) or come with other bells and whistles like stickers, puzzles, and so on. What about the kid who just wants to paint? Well, it's a coloring book for this kid. Good sized pages with nice big animals, flowers, butterflies, fish etc that a child can spend hours working on with colored pencils to find their own theme rather than feeding them elaborate adverts. those sets and several sets of pencils, and I've given them to every kid in my life. Each of them got used to it very much and there were no complaints. Melissa and Doug are doing great things. :)
