Quick note: If you have a particular character/theme you would like to find in a coloring page go to
Google Images and type in your character...for example, type "Flik coloring page" and you
quickly get 5 coloring pages from A Bug's Life.
Also, just wanted to tell you about what we're doing. First trip for my son (who will be 5) and daughter (who will be 3) coming up. [Not first for my wife and I, but first for the kids]. At exactly 26 weeks out, we started a Disney alphabet countdown. Every week, we're doing fun projects related to a letter and Disney things. Starting with A and finishing with Z. Each week as we start a new letter, they know we're getting closer to the trip [they can't wait to get to Z], plus they anticipate what new Disney things we'll talk about with each letter.
For each letter, some things we are doing -- Showing pictures of a ride -- Showing pictures of a non-ride -- Showing pictures of characters that start with that letter -- Providing worksheets and coloring pages for those characters -- my wife is weekly turning these into 2 things, 1) a big scrapbook with everything and 2) a smaller a scrapbook that shows some highlight pictures of each week that we can take on the trip.
So, for the letter A --> 4 or 5 pictures of Astro Orbiter (which both kids are now super excited to ride) and 4 or 5 pictures of the Animal Kingdom Lodge where we will be staying. I love asking them where we're going to stay on our trip and listening to them try to sound out that full name.
For characters, they have a picture of Alice, Aladdin, Ariel, Anastasia, Abu, Aurora, Arthur, Archimedes, Andy (Toy Story), and Annie (Einsteins) for their scrapbook.
This week, we're finishing up the letter I and getting started on the letter J.
For J, we're talking about The Jungle Cruise, Jedi Training Academy and the following characters: Jeremy (Phineas & Ferb), Jessie, Jacques, Jiminy Cricket, Jane (Tarzan), JoJo, Prince John, Jafar, Jasmine, Jose Carioca, and June.
