For Christmas they got some special markers that only work on special paper. I was saving them for a rainy or whiny day. The latter occurred about two weeks ago. They were arguing and whining, so I broke out the markers and special coloring books.
Ben was not thrilled. The markers mark a wet colored streak and then in a few seconds the color appears. Well Ben wasn't willing to wait for all that. He immediately wanted his crayons. I had bought some new crayons recently, and they got new coloring books for Christmas, so I put out both. Seth was content to color with the markers. After a while he started coloring on the back of the book. It's a hard piece of brown-colored cardboard. The color doesn't appear, just a wet streak. That didn't bother him one bit.
Seth colored for a while and then he got down to play. Ben colored for almost 30 minutes. He loved it!
