Take
a deep breath and let yourself relax with the calming FlowArt:
Dot-by-Letter Landscapes activity book from Lifelines. Using the
included dot pens, follow the letter-color code to bring each vibrant image to
life, one dot at a time. Each picture starts as a conglomeration of letters but
finishes as a stunning mosaic-like art piece as you cover one letter at a time
with its corresponding color. Press the marker firmly to cover large letters
and lightly to cover small letters. Most uniquely of all, no color keys are
decided ahead of time—you envision your masterpiece and assign each letter
accordingly! This kit includes 20 calming landscape scenes and 8 bright colors,
contained in 4 double-sided markers. Spiral-bound.
