Children’s Activity: Therapeutic Colouring

Sometimes, we just need an activity that allows us to switch off and zone out, to process our thoughts, feelings and experiences.

Colouring has many benefits:

  • Develops fine motor skills
  • Supports concentration skills
  • Develops colour recognition
  • Strengthens handwriting skills
  • Encourages relaxation
  • Develops focus
  • Creates a focus on the present
  • Calms a restless mind
  • Develops inner quiet
  • Reduces stress and anxiety
  • Can improve sleep
