App for children to draw and color

We all had coloring books in our childhood , those big notebooks with pre-printed black and white drawings and internal spaces to fill and color. Fortunately for adults and children, these types of books are still there and can be found in all stationery shops and bookstores or can also be easily purchased online on Amazon.

However, technology today offers us another certainly more modern tool to entertain children with drawings and colors: the Apps for children to draw and color.

These fun Apps can be downloaded to your mobile for free or for a fee and exist for both Android and iOS. Although it is always good not to leave children with their devices for too long (no more than 30 minutes a day is recommended), this type of app for children is the right compromise between using a modern medium and playing a classic game how to draw and color a drawing.

Fun applications for drawing and coloring

Below I will list some very cool and fun drawing and coloring apps  that will surely encourage an interest in drawing and painting in children. Not all of them are in Italian, but they are still quite simple and intuitive applications. Children can use them alone or having fun with their parents.
The only note to pay attention to is that free applications (precisely because they are free) may contain advertisements.
