Dress up dolls or coloring pages

I can’t remember if I have posted about these paper dolls before or not. You can download the center drawing seen above HERE. There is the option of printing a page of small dolls, or one large doll. We have done both. I have provided the kids with a bag of scraps, yarn, and glue and let them cut out “clothes” and decorate the smaller dolls (printed on cardstock) and then hung as ornaments or used as gift tags as suggested on the website where I downloaded them. While the same can be done with the larger dolls, my kids actually just like to color them. Using white out and a marker I modified the dolls.  I keep lots of these copies for moments when I need to keep everybody busy at the table for a few minutes (because lets face it, my kids don’t do anything for longer than a few minutes unless it involves large quantities of mud).

This is Super Keats.

 

This was actually colored by Jonny. I know, I know. He’s really good at coloring;

 

but not quite as good as Larkspur.
