Keep Your Little Artist Busy and Creating

Coloring is one of the great childhood pastimes. It focuses attention, occupies young minds, and, if all else fails, just gives your kid something quiet to do if you have to go work on your own stuff. These apps provide all-but-blank canvases for your little ones to express themselves and show off how many colors a shrub can be. It's more colors than you think.

Bring Your Fictional Friends to Life

Nothing against trees or mandalas, but sometimes your kids -- or you; let's be real here -- just want to stick to something more familiar, and that's where these apps come in. They'll let whoever is doing the coloring pick from their favorite cartoon, TV, and Muppet characters and color them as they please.
