National Crayon Day

This morning when I was watching the news, I learned that today is National Crayon Day. They showed several children coloring with crayons and when some of the kids were interviewed about why they liked crayons, they responded as follows: "I love coloring.", "It lets me use my imagination!", and "I like all of the colors." At the end of the day, I shared that it is National Crayon Day and told the kids they were going to celebrate by coloring with their crayons any picture they would like. The enthusiasm level was amazing! Their comments: "This is the best day ever!", "Look what I made!", "I love drawing!" 

I guess a simple thing like coloring can really brighten your day!
