World Kids Colouring Day

May 6 is World Kids Colouring Day.

• This is a great opportunity to participate in global art initiative to help support the children in need.
• World Kids Colouring Day could change the life of a Colombian child forever and teach children about a very different world.
• Australian children (and children the world over) are invited to colour and raise money for their beautiful artworks, to help other children in need.
