Coloring Like A Kid

When I was growing up, I used to love coloring in my coloring books. Over the years I had forgotten how much I loved doing this simple thing. But when I got my computer and the Internet I found that I could print some coloring pages at home and rediscover the fun of coloring. Now, I know that there are some adult coloring books on the market with all kinds of fancy designs and fancy prices. But I have no interest in those at all. Do you use the adult coloring books or do you do just like I do?

@marlina The pages in the book I have look to be very uncomplicated and I think they would be relaxing...I just don't have the time.

@marlina They gave us pencil crayons and pages to colour one day last month at work, and I didn't take to it. I enjoyed doing it quite later then most children, because I was ill when I was 12 and couldn't play outside or ride my bike, so maybe I am at that in between age, and one day I'll enjoy it. My son's fiancé does it.

I'll respond anyway... I have tried the adult coloring books but they are very intricate and do not find them at all calming. As far as the creative part, not that either

I loved to color as a kid and I love to color now as well. I have two adult coloring books when I bought and the other one I won for having the highest test grade on an anatomy test. Before I got those books I would print coloring pages off at the college library. It is a great stress reliever.

Yes I use the adult coloring books. It is nice and relaxing to do and sometimes can take hours so I only do it if i have down time and no plans.

I don't do either, though I know colouring is getting very popular now.

I have seen them too and have been tempted to get them as I find myself enjoying myself and almost relaxing colouring in with the kids!
