One parent's daughter drew colouring pages for her class, and Gemini turned her drawings into clean, printable colouring sheets.
Turn this drawing into a printable black-and-white colouring page. Keep my child's design and characters exactly as they are, use clean, bold outlines, remove any colour, shading and background marks, and fit it to an A4 page in portrait.
Replace the [PLACEHOLDERS] with your own details before you send it.
How to try it
- Photograph or scan the drawing flat, in good light.
- Upload it to Gemini and ask for clean outlines that keep your child’s design.
- Print a test page, then make copies to share with friends or the class.
More creativity use cases
Make a custom colouring sheet of your child’s favourite things with ChatGPT
A mum used ChatGPT to make her five-year-old son a colouring sheet of baby dinosaurs playing in a pumpkin patch. When it came off the printer he stared at it and told her he loved it so much he was about to cry.
Create a printable black-and-white colouring page for a [AGE]-year-old showing [THEIR FAVOURITE THINGS, E.G. BABY DINOSAURS IN A PUMPKIN PATCH]. Use thick, clear outlines, large areas to colour, no shading or grey, and a plain white background. Keep it simple enough for small hands. Portrait, A4 size.
Talk through a stuck story plot by voice with ChatGPT
A fiction writer on Hacker News was stuck on the main conflict of a story, so they talked it through with ChatGPT by voice on their phone while on the bus, then asked it for a revised outline reflecting the changes and word-count targets for each section.
I'm writing a [GENRE] story about [ONE-LINE PREMISE]. I'm stuck on [THE PROBLEM, E.G. WHY THE MAIN CHARACTER WOULD STAY]. Ask me questions one at a time to help me work it out, and don't rewrite my story for me. When we've finished, give me a revised outline with the changes we agreed and a word-count target for each section, aiming for [TOTAL WORDS] words overall.
Host a family trivia night built from your own notes with NotebookLM
Looking for ways to keep the family off screens at dinner, a mum fed NotebookLM a mix of her son's fifth-grade homework, holiday notes and silly family facts, then asked it for quiz questions. The result was their own Jeopardy-style night at home, with categories all about them.
Using only the sources in this notebook, write a family quiz with [NUMBER] rounds: [E.G. SCHOOL STUFF, OUR HOLIDAYS, FAMILY FACTS]. Write [NUMBER] questions per round, mixing easy ones for [YOUNGEST AGE] with harder ones for the adults, and give the answers separately at the end. Keep it kind: no questions that could embarrass anyone.
