* Start early by teaching them to be neat. * I feel you should let them be creative until they reach school age and it is important for them to be able to color inside the lines. Letting them be creative forever is a good idea too. Encouraging them to know *how* to color within the lines is different than demanding it always. Adding an extra arm or two to a picture is just as legitimate as anything else. Too many children refer to the front of a coloring book to know how the pictures "should" be colored. Learning control is excellent, but don't stifle creativity.

I would say between ages 4 to 6...or maybe 5

If you wanted to change the color of all text for links which are contained in paragraphs only which selector would you use?

You should change it all at once in the external stylesheet. If it does not have an external stylesheet, try looking within the <head> tags for the styles related to all paragraphs "P" or if no styles, then the text color will have to be changed within each <p> tag with the font color.
