This coloring book uses art to prove that these dreams can become reality.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Throughout the 40-page publication, the UMW students sketch a variety of possible professional pathways, many unique to the region and surrounding areas, from the UMW campus to the City of Fredericksburg, Spotsylvania, Stafford, Caroline and King George counties through Westmoreland, Richmond, Northumberland, Lancaster, Essex, King and Queen, King William, Middlesex, Gloucester and Mathews.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to coloring, activities include quick math problems, open space for drawing and interactive pages. Fred the cardinal, a character developed to showcase Virginia\u2019s state bird, makes frequent appearances, guiding young readers through the pages. Those coloring the book can also see themselves as a crabber, CEO, warehouse manager, tulip farmer, naval officer, nurse, park ranger or college student.<\/p>\n<div class=\"tiled-gallery type-rectangular tiled-gallery-unresized\" data-original-width=\"1100\" data-carousel-extra='{&quot;blog_id&quot;:7,&quot;permalink&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/www.umw.edu\\\/news\\\/2024\\\/11\\\/26\\\/career-sketches-umw-students-create-coloring-book-to-inspire-kids\\\/&quot;,&quot;likes_blog_id&quot;:230672515}' itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageGallery\" > <div class=\"gallery-row\" style=\"width: 1100px; height: 414px;\" data-original-width=\"1100\" data-original-height=\"414\" > <div class=\"gallery-group images-1\" style=\"width: 550px; height: 414px;\" data-original-width=\"550\" data-original-height=\"414\" > <div class=\"tiled-gallery-item tiled-gallery-item-large\" itemprop=\"associatedMedia\" itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\"> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.umw.edu\/news\/2024\/11\/26\/career-sketches-umw-students-create-coloring-book-to-inspire-kids\/coloring-book-party-1\/\" border=\"0\" itemprop=\"url\"> <meta itemprop=\"width\" content=\"546\"> <meta itemprop=\"height\" content=\"410\"> <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"\" data-attachment-id=\"104551\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.umw.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2024\/11\/Coloring-Book-Party-1.png\" data-orig-size=\"4032,3024\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"\" data-image-description=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/www.umw.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2024\/11\/Coloring-Book-Party-1-300x225.png\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.umw.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2024\/11\/Coloring-Book-Party-1-1024x768.png\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.umw.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2024\/11\/Coloring-Book-Party-1.png?w=546&#038;h=410&#038;ssl=1\" srcset=\"\/\/www.umw.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2024\/11\/Coloring-Book-Party-1.png 4032w, \/\/www.umw.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2024\/11\/Coloring-Book-Party-1-300x225.png 300w, \/\/www.umw.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2024\/11\/Coloring-Book-Party-1-1024x768.png 1024w, \/\/www.umw.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2024\/11\/Coloring-Book-Party-1-768x576.png 768w, \/\/www.umw.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2024\/11\/Coloring-Book-Party-1-1536x1152.png 1536w, \/\/www.umw.edu\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2024\/11\/Coloring-Book-Party-1-2048x1536.png 2048w\" width=\"546\" height=\"410\" loading=\"lazy\" data-original-width=\"546\" data-original-height=\"410\" itemprop=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/image\" title=\"\" alt=\"UMW students who created the coloring book with mentor Antoinette Jenkins, director of Rappahannock Work and Learn Collaborative.
