Coloring project ideas

While we were in Kenya (2008) we had a coloring project with all the classes at Nice View Academy. Here are a couple of examples from the Nursery and Pre-Unit classes.

I'm still trying to figure out what to do with them - any suggestions? I have around 300 pictures! Maybe have a contest to choose the favorites out of the classes and make a calendar? Auction off the favorites on e-bay or some other venue?

I made sure each picture was "signed by the artist"! They had a fun time not only because they were able to get out of regular school work for one hour but

When we return I'm planning on doing this more often and to find other craft projects to do with the kids on a regular basis. I have a friend in Nakuru, Kenya (Hi Kate!) who is very crafty - in a good way! I'll probably hit her up for some neat ideas once we are in Kenya. You can see what they are doing in Kenya at A Future and A Hope.

Please comment with any suggestions you may have for the drawings and thanks in advance for your ideas!
