Brushing teeth, tidying up, saying please and thank you: Good Habits Colouring Book turns everyday routines into pictures a child can fill in.
OM Books built the title around simple illustrated situations, each showing a behaviour young children are still learning to adopt. Because a scene has to be looked at closely before it can be coloured, the habit gets noticed and talked about rather than lectured. Adults can use each page as the opening for a short conversation, while the colouring itself works on grip, patience and attention span. The format suits home routines, classroom value lessons and quiet time after school.
Highlights of this edition:
• Illustrated scenes covering hygiene, manners, tidiness and helping others
• Every picture doubling as a prompt for a short talk with an adult
• Uncomplicated shapes that reward careful colouring
• Equally usable at home, in a classroom or on a long journey
Parents, early-years teachers and caregivers who want value-led material rather than plain activity pages will find this OM Books edition useful, available through Boipoka.
