Coloring page story

When the baby drinks from Mommy, it's more than just food. The world outside is big and loud. But right there, snuggled in close, it's the warmest, safest place to be.

The baby can smell Mommy's skin. She can feel Mommy's soft arms. She can hear Mommy's gentle voice.

It's not just a safe place for the baby. When Mommy holds her baby close like that, she feels like she's in the safest, most wonderful place in the world, too. The magic works on both of them.

Coloring page Age Appropriateness

The heart shape is a universal symbol of love that is easily recognizable to children aged 3-5. This simple, powerful image conveys the core emotion of the story—safety and love—without complex details. The very large, contained shapes are perfect for beginner colorists, building confidence and making the activity feel successful and rewarding.

Coloring Page Coloring Instructions

This is a picture of the warmest, safest hug in the world. It's shaped like a giant heart! What color feels warm and safe to you? You can color the big heart in that color. Maybe a soft, sleepy pink or a warm, sunny yellow. You can make the little floating hearts all different colors, like little bits of love floating in the air. This is a very special hug to color.

Coloring Page Printing Tips

Print this page on cardstock to create a durable piece of art that can be cut out and displayed. Ensure your printer has enough black ink for the thick, bold lines. A high-quality print will make this symbolic National Breastfeeding Month image a beautiful keepsake.

Recommended Tools

Soft pastels or chalk would be beautiful for this page, allowing a child to blend colors with their fingers to create a very soft, cozy effect (use a spray fixative afterward). Large, chunky crayons are also ideal for filling the expansive heart shape with rich, solid color.
