I’m not one to pay much attention to developmental milestones in my children. But my five year old boy gives new meaning to “color inside the lines.” Here is what he accomplished last week, all in one sitting.
I thought it was pretty cool, my husband thought it was pretty freaky. “Did you notice how he colored every shape the same color?” he asked incredulously. While father was proud of his son, he wondered at the sophisticated color patterns and the precision of his little strokes. Talk about fine motor skills.
Had I not observed him complete this entire masterpiece, I wouldn’t have believed it. I remembered being annoyed with him for stomping around the room in frustration because he couldn’t find yellow. Apparently, he had run out, and no other color would do. He found what he wanted, and continued.
Really, really amazing. Obviously a visual learner.
Look at the arrangement of those colors! The blue tones and the red tones contrast well with one another and really make the composition “pop.” I trust you’ll encourage his budding talent. :~D
e-Mom, Tipper, and Grace, my dear blog friends, thank you for sharing in my son’s really cool accomplishments! You are so sweet for indulging me in this motherly moment.

Wow, five year old?!
Masterpiece!!!
I’m not so sure I could do as well.
Fencepost, yes, and a young five at that, he’s only been five for about two months. Glad you liked it!

Amazing & no I couldn’t do that now, much less as a five year old! Does he enjoy drawing as well?
Wow, that is amazing! I loved to color as a child but am pretty sure that I was not nearly this advanced at five!
That is awesome! It looks like you have an artist on your hands.
I have one, too, but she likes to draw, all the time on everything. And she shrieks when she can’t find her pencil.
And wow again. What an amazing job!
That is awesome, I would have never in my life guessed that he could complete something so intricate for a young person. I am so proud of him
