I wanted to let him colour it in himself, but like your daughter, he wouldn't be able to stay within the lines. My solution was to cut a second piece of cardboard with a 'window' cut from it that is the same size as one day square. He chooses what colour today has been, I line the window up over today's square on the cross, and he scribbles away. He is very happy when I lift the window away and he can see his 'perfect' square! This is working really well for us :D<BR/><BR/>(I came here via the 4Real forum, to download your stations of the cross and rosary cards - THANK YOU!)Mythhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03243071725565727650noreply@blogger.com
