Today I got the Color Wonder books out from Christmas. Liam sat at the little table for an hour and colored in his book. These books are very nice since in theory the markers only color on the Color Wonder paper. Granted, they will color on a few odd things but we've never had that happen to us. When the kids stick the markers in their mouths, you'll find the color left behind on their lips but they are other wise safe. Which makes these a perfect toy to take with you to those family gatherings or long appointments when the kids need to be occupied. Of course, if you know the same people we do you may still have people freak out on you without asking first because "Oh my gosh, the kids have markers!" I just have to ask, do you really think I would allow the middle and younger kids to have markers if they could actually write on other stuff? As Alan has been known to tell folks, nothing comes into our house unless it is washable.

Color Wonder
Liam is one of those kids who seem to always be in motion. So anything that keeps him still for an hour is more than welcome around here.
