Sharing Amazing

An adult-child coloring page to spark ideas and connection.

Your family has so much amazing to share—familial traits, interests, skills, recipes, memories, stories, and more! Sharing a few quiet moments coloring together can help spark ideas for new ways to connect. 

Children can use crayons or markers. Colored pencils or thin-tipped markers work well for the detailed “adult” areas, but crayons will work too! Here are some other tips: 

  • If possible, parents and children should sit side by side in a quiet space with a surface. 
  • Adults can invite children to choose what to color first—and which color to use. Follow their lead! 
  • Children color the large image, adults color the more detailed background. 
  • There’s no right or wrong way to color; the goal is to sit and relax together. It’s okay to sit without talking, too! 
  • Use the conversation starters at the bottom of the page to talk together or think about what’s possible for your family.
