Kid Konnection: Sticker Pictures



Every Saturday, I host a feature called Kid Konnection -- a regular weekend feature about anything related to children's books. This week I'm going to share with you two activity books that are guaranteed to keep your kids busy this summer.

Summary: Take coloring to the next level with these bright, geometric color-by-number templates of your favorite animals. Sticker Pictures: Animals is filled with 14 simple polygonal images to color. Use the included stickers along with crayons, colored pencils, and markers to fill in each image, and watch your inner artist grow! -- Walter Foster, Jr.

STICKER PICTURES: ANIMALS and STICKER PICTURES: PETS are terrific craft books that are perfect for kids ages 5 - 8 years old. I know coloring books are all the rage, but I had two kids who hated to color. These sticker books would definitely have been more their speed.

STICKER PICTURES: ANIMALS and STICKER PICTURES: PETS are a great concept in activity books. Basically, these books each contain 14 simple images to "color." And by "color," I mean decorate with stickers. There will be a few spaces left after the stickers are placed to actually color with colored pencils, crayons, or makers.

These STICKER PICTURES book look like so much fun. The ANIMALS book has polygonal images, while the PETS book has pixel images. I think younger kids might appreciate the PETS book more because the graphics all consist of same-sized squares which are easier to decorate -- all they have to do is match the color of the square. The ANIMALS book has different polygon shapes in different colors that are also numbered, so this book requires kids to match the numbers to the picture. (Having said that, the shapes are separated by picture so it's not really all that complicated!)

With summer rapidly approaching, I think these craft books will keep kids entertained for hours! Highly recommended!

Thanks to the Quarto Group for providing review copies of these books.
