ABC Color with Me is the ideal way to get young children involved with computers while conversely providing them with something they love... coloring. Downloading 'ABC Color with Me' is free and only requires Windows 95 with Internet Explorer 4 or higher.

Children can listen to music as they use their mouse and a color chart to fill in their pictures. After personally testing the do-ability of the coloring projects, I've determined that if I can do it, then most four year olds should have no trouble what-so-ever. Hand-eye coordination is developed as well as a basic foundation for operating a computer.

I can't think of a better way to make a young one feel 'big'. And I can't think of a better way to keep a child busy while mother or father 'color' on their computers.

It's not necessary to download ABC Color with Me to let your children enjoy the online coloring feature. They can access two different coloring books online, each with up to thirty different pictures for them to enjoy. Your child can color Christmas, Halloween, and Valentines related themes, as well as flowers, birds, butterflies, and other outdoor 'creatures'.

You can find additional links to the Activity Pad, where you'll find printable pages, games, mazes, and other preschool activities ideal for young children. If you can trust your child with a computer, it's almost like having your own personal teachers aid to keep your child busy for hours.

Fun games with a purpose include Checkers, Concentration, Hangman Game, Matching Game, Solitaire, and Word Puzzles.

Since learning must be tempered with entertainment, Arcade Games include Battleship, Breakout, IceBlox, Pac Man, Space Invaders, and Sdpace Defenders, among others.

All in all, PapaJan.com is a very visually exciting and interesting site for children. Download ABC Color with Me and you have the perfect solution to keeping a little one busy during an extended trip.
