A simple Bunny coloring book will change the mood, bring a joyful festive touch to New Year's Eve 2023, and make it easier for parents to keep the kids busy for a while while the adults are busy pre-holiday chores.
Why coloring pages?
Modern children spend their free time mainly immersed in the World Wide Web. Phones, tablets, and the like have replaced the simple, unsophisticated entertainment that their parents enjoyed so much. What can we say about moms and dads, if even grandparents had beautiful coloring as one of their favorite activities.
However, drawing and coloring for children is always more interesting than the most fashionable gadget. The best time to join this activity is New Year's Eve, when coloring a picture will be one of the best solutions to several problems at once.
- First - and most importantly - parents calmly go about their business, not thinking about what to do with their children, and not worrying that they are quietly engaged in petty household sabotage. Working with paper, on which the Rabbit is depicted, with pencils or paints will captivate the child so much that he will forgeteverything else for a while.
- Second, which is also important - a distraction from iPhones, tablets, laptops and other gadgets that are so popular even among the youngest.
- Third - coloring with Rabbits is an introduction to creativity, and the process itself, when a colorful miracle appears from a black and white drawing, can be the beginning of a serious passion for fine arts.
- Fourth - parents will tell their children why the Rabbit is a symbol of the New Year 2023, what the Chinese horoscope is, and in addition - who are rabbits and hares, how they live, what they eat and much more from the life of this fluffy rodent.
What do you need for coloring?
In addition to the contour drawing itself, you need to choose materials. Before seating for painting, you need to remember that:
- what is drawn with should match what is being painted on - the paper should be comfortable for using one or another coloring tool;
- writing medium should be appropriate for the age of the artist - it will be difficult for kids to cope with paints;
- if you have to work with watercolor or gouache, it is better to cover the table with oilcloth, and put an apron on the child.
Parents should explain to children how to draw with one medium or another, what strokes are and how to apply them, how to mix paints or what to do so that they do not spread on paper. If you have to draw with pencils, then you can remember your childhood and the funny technique of rubbing strokes with a cotton pad or papernapkin.
The first thing you need is the coloring itself, which can be downloaded for free on our website and then printed.
You can paint a picture using different means. Which one is better and what to choose?
Pencils - there are in any home, from sets of 12 pieces to heavy boxes with a large number of multi-colored pencils, used even by professional draftsmen. The drawing is not the brightest, but if you wish, you can make it as artistic and believable as possible using many colors and shades, especially if you find an image of a live rabbit for a sample. The smallest can press hard on the pencil when drawing, so you need to print the Rabbit on thicker paper, and put a thick lining under the sheet.
Felt-tip pens - always delight with their brightness and clarity of the picture. The best option for kids. A high degree of realism is unlikely to be achieved, but no one sets such a goal. The main thing is that at the end of the painting, the child does not switch to other surfaces, because not all felt-tip pens are washed off.
The same bright and gel pens, but they are given to patient children: thin tips take a lot of time to draw the symbol of the year in full.
Watercolor and gouache are the prerogative of older children. Watercolor paints allow you to make transitions between different colors and achieve beautiful shades, and gouache dries quickly, you can paint on it with a different color.
Coloring book with a Rabbit will help you learncreative work skills, will give him the opportunity to manifest a vision of the world.
