It helps them with fine motor skills and emotional well-being. It also helps develop hand-eye coordination, strengthens grip strength, and promotes relaxation, potentially reducing stress. Therefore, as they are coloring the Third Grade Graduation sheet they are relaxing and at the same time socializing with their classmates.
