Can anyone tell me how to spell Buddha in Sanskrit? I have been looking all over the net and can't find it. Also can anyone tell me where I can get some good pictures of Hindu Gods, or any really good coloring pages of these gods for children. Any info will be helpful.

Buddha in Sanskrit is: बुद्ध
His real name, Siddhartha Gautama is: सिद्धार्थ गौतम

In Sanskrit (which the above answerer does give, just in a particular script) the spelling for buddha is:
buddha.
Buddha is a Sanskrit word. Its from the root bodh, meaning to awake or to know, in past participle form. He has a number of other epithets, but buddha = buddha.
BTW--you don't need any Hindi experts for this question!
Google image search any of the following:
hanuman, siva, shiva, krishna, devi, sarasvati, brahma, vishnu
and you'll have all the pictures of Hindu gods you'll need.
