A Rainy Day Coloring Activity Kids Can Invent Themselves

Rainy days can get long with young kids at home. After a few games, books, and cartoons, parents often start searching for another indoor activity. Printable coloring pages are an easy option, but sometimes choosing and printing them becomes another job for the parent.

With SayDraw, the child can help decide what happens next. Ask them what they want to color. A giant strawberry house. A dinosaur school. A dog birthday party. Their answer becomes the starting point for a new coloring page.

We like this because the activity can keep changing without changing the basic routine. One picture can become three completely different pictures just by asking another question. Kids can color the result with a finger or Apple Pencil and keep the pictures they made in their collection.

A rainy day activity does not have to become a lesson or a carefully planned craft project. Sometimes a simple prompt is enough to start ten or twenty minutes of focused play. SayDraw is our attempt to make those little creative moments easier to start.
