After seeing all these color-coding of interiors I was inspired to put together a collection of coloring pages for kids with color-coded rooms or even rooms themed around food. What was even better was I found all of these coloring pages to be free!
These activities are perfect for rainy days, or even when the big one is coming. I put the code for these activities on my blog, so even if you don’t want to copy them, you can still follow them. I am having fun combining visual and literacy skills with visual stimulation and fun!
Believe it or not, children are not always the best colorists. Young artists don’t get it. We want to help them out, so we will be sharing coloring pages for kids, helping them to practice colors correctly, to reinforce their knowledge of the alphabet, and simply to have fun!
Our coloring pages feature famous kids, like the author and artist of these coloring pages, except now, they’re done by you! We are happy to provide you with an opportunity to learn from some of the best cartoonists around.
Every day we do the same thing. We go to school, come home, and watch TV. These are all of the things that children do, but it can’t be so boring, can it? You can help us out by posting your coloring pages to our online coloring page library.
You can download a picture of a kid from our library and illustrate a coloring page, or you can illustrate your own kids pictures and create your own coloring pages.
It’s entirely up to you! We will feature as many of your picture as possible on our web site. You can also submit your coloring pages as comments to this post in the comments section.
Once you upload them to our web site, they’ll be automatically printed out on “color pages” suitable for coloring on paper (there are plenty of them to choose from our website, of course), and made available on the art files section.
Coloring has an important place in a child's playtime and development. By learning how to color, you are instilling a pattern that will help the child find their sense of self, and develop as a complex human being with a full emotional experience.
According to The Encyclopedia of Psychology, Colourism is “relatively invisible”, “a covert form of discrimination that presumes that members of a race are less superior than members of another race”.
Colorism is often associated with the ideal image of the black race, as seen in popular movies, fashion, and television. “The supposed superiority of black people over whites”, and the “negative connotations attached to light skin”, are often used as reasons for colorism.
Common forms of colorism involve:
Colorism in the pursuit of health
Colorism in the pursuit of beauty
Colorism in relationships
Colorism in education

In this way, colorism is any form of discrimination based on skin color.
Background on Colourism
In 2015, Colorism around the World was identified as a new form of prejudice by the University of Utah’s Public Understanding of Complexity initiative, based on previous research in the area.
In the book called Colorism, Discrimination, and Social Power in Modern American Media, authors Andrew W. Fountain and Carla B.
Fuller reported on 30 of the most famous and well-known television characters. These characters were assigned an overall score, based on their association with colorism (dark skin/light skin – lower score), beauty (white/black – higher score), and socioeconomic class (lower/higher score).
Out of the 15 characters, 9 were shown to have lighter skin (dusky), whereas 7 characters had darker skin (darker).
Topping the list was Oprah Winfrey’s character, Rebecca Nelson, from the ‘The Color Purple’, while Lena Dunham’s character, Hannah Horvath, was ranked third.
Rebecca Nelson – One of Oprah Winfrey’s characters from ‘The Color Purple’. Rebecca has a lighter skin tone, which is ranked higher than Lena’s character.
I hope that you likes these coloring pages and gift them to make your children happy.
