Coloring page story

Barnaby Buttons was in charge of teddy bear eyes. He had jars of buttons: round black ones, shiny blue ones, and sleepy half-moon ones. His favorite job was for the “Best Friend Bears.” Each one needed two matching buttons so it could see all the adventures it would have. Today, he was working on a bear for a little girl named Lily, who had asked for a bear with eyes “the color of a starry night.”

Barnaby knew just the ones: two sparkly, dark-blue buttons with little silver flecks. He reached into the Starry Night jar… and found only one. “Fiddlesticks!” he muttered. He searched everywhere. He looked under his desk. He looked in the fluff bin. He even looked in his own pocket, but all he found was a peppermint candy. The bear sat there, winking with one starry eye. “I can’t send you with only one eye!” Barnaby told the bear sadly. "You won't be able to see all of Lily's beautiful drawings."

Just then, Wobble Jinglefeet, the clumsiest elf, tripped and skidded past. Jingle-jangle-SKID! As he fell, something sparkly flew off his shoe and rolled under Barnaby’s desk. Barnaby’s eyes lit up. He crawled under the desk and there it was: the matching Starry Night button! “Wobble!” Barnaby laughed. “You had it on your shoe buckle!” Wobble blushed. “I thought it looked festive!” Barnaby patted his back. “You found it! You saved the day!” Together, they carefully stitched on the second eye. The bear looked perfect. Barnaby learned that sometimes, the thing you’re looking for is in the silliest, most unexpected place, and a little help from a friend makes all the difference.

Coloring page Age Appropriateness

The Round & Soft style is exceptionally gentle and friendly, making it perfect for the 3-5 age group. There are no sharp angles or complex details. The characters are distinct and their emotions are clear and positive. The large, simple shapes of the bear and the elves are ideal for young children who are still mastering their coloring skills.

Coloring Page Coloring Instructions

Hooray, they found the button! Let's help them finish the bear. You can make Barnaby and Wobble's elf suits match, or you can give them each their own special color. What color is the 'starry night' button? Maybe a deep, sparkly blue? The teddy bear would look so soft and cuddly in a light brown or cream color. Let's give him a big, happy smile!

Coloring Page Printing Tips

Print this coloring page on standard letter-sized paper. Using the 'Fit to Page' option in your printer settings will ensure the entire charming scene is captured without any parts getting cut off. A draft mode can be used for a quick print, but a 'Normal' setting is better for darker lines.

Recommended Tools

Large, triangular-shaped colored pencils can help promote a proper pencil grip. Twistable crayons are also a great, no-mess option that don't require sharpening. For a fun texture, try using cotton balls to dab paint onto the teddy bear's fur!
