Why are airliners attractive?

Since ancient times, aviation has given people freedom and speed of movement, lifting them into the air where only birds could fly, providing the opportunity to see the earth from above. People experience wonderful feelings during flight that cannot be found on the ground. Therefore, in the minds of many, it has become something extraordinary and very interesting.

Aviation is no less interesting to young children than it is to adults. Girls will like airplane coloring pages with cartoon characters, with charming faces, while older boys will be attracted to military and cargo air transport.

How to color better?

The choice of tools should be approached responsibly. Below are recommendations that can be adjusted according to the child’s preferences. The main thing is that they enjoy the activity!

For very young children, you can buy wax crayons. They are bright, leave no marks on hands, are wide enough, and easy to hold.
For older children, from 4-5 years old, who are starting to prepare their hand for writing, simple pencils are recommended. They help develop the necessary degree of pressure on paper, which will be needed for further mastery of ballpoint pens.
At 6-7 years old, markers can be used.

How to choose the right picture?

For 3-4 year olds, choose images with minimal details and one clear, thick outline.
At 5 years old, you can find pictures with several objects, the outlines should be less bold.
In the older preschool age, you can already consider personal preferences and select images with many small elements.
