    Can't remember the names but I DO remember massive colouring books that seemed to be the thickness of a catalogue, and the little tins of paint with a picture on the front.

    Happy days :grin:

    Morning Mig!

    Oh I used to LOVE colouring in! And I do remember the pencil crayons you mention. My friends and I used to spend hours on the really big "doodle art" posters and the best pressie EVER was a new pack of coloured pens, all arranged in order of colour.

    does anyone remember the 'magic painting' books,I remember mum used to buy me them from Woolworths when I was young?They had outline pictures in them and you used a paintbrush and plain water to bring out the colours.
