Coloring page story
Ferdinand the Fox found a perfect rock. It was smooth and grey and shaped just like a heart. "This is my kindness rock," he decided.
He saw Squirrel crying. "What's wrong?" he asked. "I can't find any nuts!" sobbed Squirrel. Ferdinand gave Squirrel the heart-shaped rock. "Hold this. It will bring you luck." As Squirrel held the warm rock, he looked up and saw a big, juicy acorn he had missed. He was so happy!
Ferdinand felt good, but now his paws were empty. He had given his heart away.
Unexpected Twist: Just then, Squirrel came back with his friends, Bear and Badger. They weren't just bringing acorns. Each one had found a special rock for Ferdinand—one shaped like a star, one like a leaf, and one that was a perfect, round circle. His paws were full of friendship!
✨ Interactive Element: Let's look around the room. Can you find anything shaped like a heart?
Coloring page Age Appropriateness
For ages 3-5, this scene beautifully illustrates the concept of reciprocity in friendship. The animals are friendly and non-intimidating, and the different rock shapes provide a simple, fun sorting/identification element. The story's core message about a 'giving heart' is visualized in a clear, positive way.
Coloring Page Coloring Instructions
Look at all of Ferdinand's friends! They are giving him presents because he was so kind. Let's give Ferdinand a nice orange or red color. What colors will his friends be? You can make the squirrel brown, the bear black, and the badger grey. And don't forget to color in the special rocks—the star, the leaf, and the circle!
Coloring Page Printing Tips
To make the different rock shapes stand out, print on bright white paper. This will create a nice contrast for the colors your child chooses. A high-quality print ensures that the friends' kind gestures—the heart of the illustration—are clear and inviting to color.
Recommended Tools
This page is perfect for a set of colored pencils, allowing your child to carefully color each animal and their unique rock. It's a great opportunity to practice control. Chunky crayons are also wonderful for filling in the larger areas of the animal's bodies with big, happy strokes.
