Trace Then Color: Cartoon People

Trace Then Color: Cartoon People turns cartoon people into a two-part creative activity: follow the character lines, then decide how the picture should look in color.

The activity experience

People-themed activities can lead to invented characters with jobs, habits, and stories of their own. The book belongs to Trace Then Color, the series intended for ages 3 and up. Children begin with a character outline rather than having to plan the whole drawing on an empty page.

Use the tracing as the opening task and the decorating as the personal part of the project. A child can return to a favorite subject, invent markings, or choose a palette just because it feels fun. Give one character a pretend occupation and add an object that explains it.

Choose this title when cartoon people are the interest that will bring a child to the art table. The activity combines pencil work with color choices; it is different from a six-step lesson or a grid-copying challenge. Let the child decide how much to finish in one sitting.
