Well, this really digressed from CBT.

I don't have much of an opinion on coloring books, as I don't have much artisitic talent. But I do think it is cool for kids that love art to take that to the next level, coloring pictures online and doing graphic art.

I am not an expert on what it does to your creativity, having little. And I don't think I did that much coloring as a kid...

But DD loves to do it in restaurants and in her downtime (which she does have) she actually will color sometimes, usually blank sheets and draw her own pictures.

So my point was that taking coloring and transfering to computer may be a great learning tool for kids that are interested.
