Go beyond coloring with our ABC Coloring Book. The playful coloring book is based on the custom illustrations found in our ABCsons photoset. 

Change the way you practice the alphabet with this do-it-yourself craft. Transform your child's ABC coloring pages into artwork worthy of displaying throughout the house. 

Kids are naturally creative. Once they practice and color their way through the alphabet—provide them the materials to create their own arts and crafts.

String together a garland

Garlands are often an overlooked craft. Their simplicity allows you to get creative and create fun combinations from next-to-nothing. You can add anything from whimsy tassel, knotted felt, or recycled items found around the house. This kid-friendly craft is easy to make independently and customized any way they choose. Dig in your craft stockpile and start stringing items together. Once colored, use the coloring pages to spell fun words. When finished, proudly hang the masterpiece on the mantel, doorway, railing, or wall. Their and simplicity are a perfect addition to any home.

Hang as wall art 

One of the simplest and quickest ways to display your child's artwork is to hang it on the wall. 

Instead of letting their artwork clutter the fridge, artfully hang a few on the wall. Select a few of their favorite pages and place them directly in frames. To keep your children engaged, you can frequently replace the artwork. 

If you don't have extra wall space, hang the coloring pages on twine and use washi tape to adhere to the wall. If that isn't strong enough, use a Command Hook. 

The best part about crafts and DIY projects—there are no rules. Discover your own creative ways to honor your child's artwork and share it with us on Instagram @magicpaperstudios.
