Daisies Pip's Sleepy Secret Coloring Pages

Coloring page story

Once, there was a little daisy named Pip. During the day, Pip’s petals were wide open, like a big, white smile with a sunny yellow middle. But when the sun began to yawn and go to sleep, something funny happened. Pip’s petals began to close up, one by one. Fold, fold, fold.

A little glow-worm named Glimmer wiggled by. "Pip, where are you going?" he chirped. "I'm going to sleep," whispered Pip, his petals almost closed. "It's cozy in here."

Plot Twist: Glimmer wiggled right under one of Pip's folded petals. It was like a tiny, white tent! "It is cozy!" he giggled. All night long, Glimmer's gentle light made Pip's sleepy tent glow, and they kept each other warm until the morning sun came to say, "Wake up!"

Coloring page Age Appropriateness

This design is ideal for ages 3-5. The large, simple shapes of the closed daisy and the friendly glow-worm are easy for small hands to color within the lines. The theme of a 'sleepy' flower is gentle and relatable, avoiding any complex or overstimulating visuals. The focus on a single, clear interaction helps young children understand the story.

Coloring Page Coloring Instructions

Hello, little artist! Look at our sleepy daisy, Pip. Can you see his glow-worm friend, Glimmer, hiding inside? You can use a bright yellow or a light green crayon for the little glow-worm to show he is glowing in the dark. What color will you make the night sky? Maybe a dark blue or a purple? And don't forget the big, smiling moon! You can make his petals white by leaving them empty, or give him any color you can imagine for his daisy tent.

Coloring Page Printing Tips

For best results, print this page on a slightly thicker paper, like cardstock, to prevent markers from bleeding through. Use your printer's 'High Quality' or 'Best' setting to ensure the bold outlines of the daisies are crisp and clear for your little one to color.

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. Using safety scissors to cut out the finished picture can be another fun activity for developing motor skills, with a grown-up's help, of course!
