Friendship & Fun fall Coloring Pages

Coloring page story

Pip was a small, round pumpkin in a big, busy patch. All the other pumpkins were talking about becoming jack-o'-lanterns. Pip was quiet. He felt a little lonely. One day, two robins, Ruby and Red, landed nearby. "You look sad, little pumpkin," chirped Ruby. "I'm just... small," whispered Pip. The next morning, Pip woke up to a tickle on his head. (Unexpected Twist) The robins had brought all their friends, and they had woven him a crown from the most beautiful red and yellow fall leaves. He wasn't just a small pumpkin; he was the king of the patch!

Coloring page Age Appropriateness

The gentle, narrative feel of the illustration is perfect for ages 3-5. The central, friendly characters (pumpkin and birds) are appealing, and the large, simple shapes of the pumpkin and leaf crown are easy for small hands to color, reinforcing the positive story.

Coloring Page Coloring Instructions

Here is Pip the pumpkin! He's the king of the patch. Can you color his happy face? His friends, the birds, made him a special crown of fall leaves. You can color each leaf a different color—maybe red, orange, and yellow! Don't forget to color the friendly birds and the other pumpkins in the patch. You are making this picture so special!

Coloring Page Printing Tips

Print this page on thicker paper if your child plans to use markers or even watercolor paints. Setting the print scale to 'fit to page' will ensure the entire charming scene is captured without any cropping. A well-printed page makes the fall story come alive.

Recommended Tools

Crayons are a classic choice and work wonderfully for the large areas. For the leaf crown, colored pencils can allow for more precision if your child wants to color each leaf differently. Always choose non-toxic tools for this age group.
