Colouring Pages - Make your self-portrait!

Colouring pages is a childish activity. Mainly the colouring pages showing cartoons and comic characters. I am always trying to find cars for the men such as BMW or old fashion cars and for the women animals f.e cats. Sometimes if their vision is not good I will try to find a colouring page that shows only one thing and doesn't have many details. Complicated drawings are "crowded" and hard to see for people with problematic vision. 

An idea that I had is to take a picture of the elders, edited on a computer and give it back to them to colour their self-portrait! This can also be a good idea for birthday cards! 

Many of the elders liked that idea, colouring their self-portraits!

You'll need:
  • Paper
  • One picture - portrait
  • A printer
  • Photo editing software such as Photoshop or even Microsoft Word. 
  • Crayons, colour markers or pencils or watercolours 

Instructions: Scan the picture and take one with a digital camera. Open microsoft word, or photoshop and use one of the filters to transform the picture to a comic picture. There are also some oneline services that you can use. such as: http://www.befunky.com/ , http://www.cartoonize.net/ . 
As soon as you cartoonize the picture, print out the image and start the colouring! 

P.S Please feel free to contact me to help you with the software!
