In this Learn to Draw Animals and Color by Number book, there are 15 animals to draw and 15 pictures to color by number. You will learn how to draw each animal step by step. At the end of the book, there are 15 pages of graphs which you can remove and use to draw the animals by looking at the ones you learned how to draw by following the step-by-step guides. When you have finished drawing the animals, you can color the pictures.
These are great for practicing putting shapes together to draw animals. They are designed to be fun-to-do activities which help develop important skills and abilities. These are appropriate for children ages 6-10+. Depending upon the child, younger and older children may enjoy them as well.
Kids will benefit from this book by
- Learning how to put shapes together to draw animals
- Practice in pencil control
- Developing fine motor skills in coloring the numbered parts of pictures
- Learning how to follow guides in drawing and coloring
- Developing attention to details
- Being able to take pride in each finished page
Following through with projects and having a sense of accomplishment and pride in the completed challenge are important to a child's development. As their skills grow, they will be encouraged to look for more challenging things to do. Having fun while doing so makes this enjoyable and rewarding. It is my wish and desire that anyone using this book has a wonderful time in accomplishing each project.
