Most children love to color, and every child should have a coloring book featuring an array of educational subjects. A coloring book that showcases a variety of wild animals, for example, is just the thing to arouse a child's curiosity about zoology. It's a great opportunity to expand a young and curious mind, filling it with wonder as he begins to realize just how many remarkable creatures live outside of his familiar landscape. While coloring, adults can engage the child about his art subject and use it as an opportunity to introduce facts about the creatures which he is viewing.
