You Can Download Free Coloring Books From Over 100 Museums
If you're looking for solutions to keep your kids entertained and educated while home from school, coloring famous art is a great way to do that.
So many different businesses and organizations are putting out materials for parents to help become teachers while kids are home from school. One of my favorite ones that I've seen is free coloring books from 113 different museums and institutions. Open Culture reports that every year, the New York Academy of Medicine invites institutions and museums to create free coloring books and pages based on their exhibits.
