Frogs at the Pond

This busy pond scene is packed with things to color: a few frogs perched on lily pads, tall cattails and reeds lining the edge, a dragonfly skimming just above the surface, gentle ripples on the water, and a couple of lily flowers in bloom. With so many separate elements, it is one of the most detailed and rewarding pages in the collection. Ponds like this one are full of life, and frogs share the water with dragonflies, fish, and reeds, all part of the same little ecosystem. Because there is so much going on, this page suits older kids and grown-ups who enjoy a longer, more involved coloring project, though younger children can happily focus on one frog at a time. Mix several greens for the pads and reeds, a flash of blue on the dragonfly, and soft colors for the flowers. Print on US Letter or A4 and take your time.
