- Fine motor skills

- Visual motor skills
- Independence
And don’t forget to allow your child to color these coloring pages in anyway they’d like. This means they don’t HAVE to stay inside the lines. They don’t have to color the Mardi Gras designs in the traditional colors of green and purple. They can color masks and feathers in whatever color they wish. And they can draw in embellishments such as candy or balloons in the extra white space if they want. Let them color and create however they desire!
