Ratings/Reviews
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
“When children enter school for the first time their ability levels vary sooo much. Having this to help those who say things like “I don’t know how to draw a cat” gives them a chance to see that they will never learn until they start trying! ? Thank you so much for taking the time to make this useful resource!”
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
“This resource was exactly what I was looking for to use with my kindergarten students. It’s always a challenge at the beginning of the school year trying to explain how and what excellent coloring looks like in kindergarten. This was perfect and will be used throughout the school year!”
