2-year-old coloring?

For a 2-year-old, coloring isn't about 'staying inside the lines perfectly.' At this age, what matters is pencil grip, hand-eye coordination, and discovering cause-and-effect.
The typical situation: the child makes random scribbles on large paper, and often goes outside the lines. This is completely normal and expected for development. Using only one color and getting bored is normal, as is being selective.
Practical tip for parents: instead of complex coloring books, prefer large blank papers and thick pastels or washable finger paints that can be held with one finger. Let your child make their own scribbles; don't correct them with "you went outside the lines." You can sit together and draw something on your own paper—this is the most natural way to model.
What matters is the process, not the result.
