Coloring something certainly helps remember it. And changing the colors of shapes/objects
in a drawing or scene or skin is one of the simple pleasures in life.
A simple implementation of coloring would let you pick the colors of
your own sugar skin and icon.<br>
<br>I dreamed the other day about those pattern-coloring books that introduce you to unusual but beautiful tilings; when I was a kid we used to make copies of them or trace them on onionskin and color separately, later comparing the results for elegant patterns.<br>

How do you feel about providing coloring books like activities in sugar? I've found material from the American Red Cross on Disaster Preparedness in around 20 languages[1]. I feel that it would be fairly trivial work to create a template for children to color in in another activity (hopefully the wonderful painting activity from ICDL). Is this work worth doing?<br>
<br>Is a coloring book an effective method of distributing information in a digital realm? Is it a constructionist method or how could it be made one?<br><br>Seth<br><br>[1] <a href="http://www.redcross.org/services/disaster/0,1082,0_504_,00.html" target="_blank">http://www.redcross.org/services/disaster/0,1082,0_504_,00.html</a><br>
