The Grinch Line Coloring Activity

Some of the best times with my daughter were spent coloring. Just recently, we both sat down at the table and colored a Mandela picture. Afterwards, we both felt calm, accomplished, and in a good mood. The Grinch Line Coloring sheet is a perfect way to spend time with your kids while getting in the Christmas spirit.

You could do this craft before or after watching the classic movie “How The Grinch Stole Christmas.” Or, if you want to make it a little more educational, read “The Grinch” and watch the movie to compare and contrast them.

Skills Built With Coloring

You may think that coloring and line drawing is just a simple task that keeps the kids busy for a little bit. But, did you know coloring and drawing lines is something that is beneficial to your children later in life? Here are some of the skills kids gain just by coloring:

  1. Fine motor skills. Kids need to build those little muscles in their hands in order to write letters, shapes, and numbers. Coloring helps to build those skills.
  2. Patience. Patience is a virtue and coloring takes a lot of patience. As kids color, they learn patience and endurance to get the task accomplished.
  3. Builds attention span. If you know a teacher, you know their number one struggle with kindergartners is their attention span. Coloring helps build a child’s attention span so that they can sit and listen to a story or a mini lesson.
