About

Meet the creator of Preschool Coloring Pages HQ

As a lifelong learner and professional educator, Dr. Tawna Schmidt appreciates the learning process and the importance of creating a firm educational foundation in the early years of life.

Coloring is a fun way to build foundational learning skills and an exciting activity for children (and even adults).

With thousands upon thousands of online coloring websites, we struggled to find one that focused on simple coloring pages designed for young learners.

Therefore, sharing all the coloring pages she created for her students and grandlittles was the beginning of PreschoolColoringPagesHQ.com.

Coloring is a crucial foundational learning skill for preschoolers, offering many developmental benefits that support their growth.

Engaging in coloring activities helps young children develop fine motor skills by practicing the coordination of slight hand movements needed to hold crayons or markers. This strengthens their hand muscles and improves dexterity, which is essential for writing and other tasks requiring precise hand-eye coordination.

Furthermore, coloring fosters creativity and imagination, allowing children to express themselves through color choices and artistic decisions. It also introduces them to basic concepts, such as color recognition, shapes, and spatial awareness.

By staying within the lines, preschoolers enhance their ability to focus and pay attention to details, while completing a coloring page provides a sense of accomplishment and boosts their confidence.

Overall, coloring is a fun and educational activity that lays the groundwork for essential skills needed in school and everyday life.

A little history about the author and creator . . .

Being the best mom and wife possible was always the top priority for Dr. Schmidt, even when her professional goals were high on the priority list.

She is the mom of two grown boys and two grandkids (a 4-year-old granddaughter and a 6-year-old grandson), and she has been married for 33 years. She loves sharing all the coloring pages she creates with her littles and even loves the relaxation it provides by coloring herself!

Dr. Tawna Schmidt’s early career in education started as a high school social studies and language arts teacher. Upon earning her master’s degree in school counseling and certification from ages 0-21, she branched into the role of counselor for students from Pre-K through high school.

Earning her doctorate in education advanced her career further in post-secondary education as a university professor. During her time in this role, Dr. Schmidt spent many hours each week observing and evaluating student teachers in their classrooms and teaching education courses on classroom management, curriculum and instruction, and other education-oriented courses.
