Brave Leo the Leaf's fall Adventure Coloring Pages

Coloring page story

Leo was a little red leaf, clinging tightly to his branch. "I don't want to fall!" he wiggled. "It looks scary down there." All his friends, the yellow and orange leaves, had already danced down to the ground. Whoosh! went the wind. Leo held on. A wise old owl hooted, "It's not falling, little one. It's flying!" Leo peeked down. The other leaves looked like a soft, colorful carpet. He took a deep breath, let go, and... he didn't fall! He twirled! He spun! He swooped and swirled, landing gently on the pile. (Unexpected Twist) It wasn't scary at all; it was a bouncy, fun ride!

Coloring page Age Appropriateness

The design is ideal for ages 3-5. The large, simple shapes and thick, rounded lines of the leaf and owl cater to developing fine motor skills. The happy, non-intimidating characters make the concept of change during the fall season feel safe and exciting.

Coloring Page Coloring Instructions

Hello, little artist! Look at Leo the leaf flying through the air! Can you make him a bright red, sunny yellow, or warm orange? The big owl is watching him. What color will you make the wise owl? And look at all the leaves on the ground! You can make them a whole rainbow of fall colors. Remember to have fun and color inside the big, bold lines!

Coloring Page Printing Tips

For best results, print on sturdy paper like cardstock. This will prevent markers from bleeding through and hold up well to enthusiastic crayon coloring. Printing in 'black and white' mode ensures the lines are crisp and clear, making the fall scene easy for your child to see.

Recommended Tools

Large, chunky crayons are perfect for this age group as they are easy to grip. Washable markers are also a great choice for vibrant colors. Encourage your child to try holding the crayon with their fingers instead of their whole fist to practice their grip.
