Coloring page story
Boris the Badger was always grumpy. "Too sunny! Too noisy!" he'd huff. One day, a little fawn left a juicy red apple at his door. Boris sniffed it. He took a bite. CRUNCH! It was so sweet. For the first time all day, he smiled. The next day, he left a shiny pebble for the fawn.
Coloring page Age Appropriateness
The clear visual storytelling of 'grumpy' then 'happy' is very effective for ages 3-5, helping them understand emotional change. The expressive faces are easy to read. The simple character shapes without a complex background are perfect for their coloring abilities. It's a great visual for a thanksgiving lesson on how giving makes others (and us) happy.
Coloring Page Coloring Instructions
Oh, look at this grumpy badger! Let's color his fur. Maybe he's grumpy because he's all gray. But look! After he gets a yummy apple, he's so happy! Let's color the happy badger with bright, cheerful colors. And don't forget the big, juicy apple. What color is a sweet apple? Red? Green? You decide!
Coloring Page Printing Tips
Print on standard letter paper. This page is an excellent conversation starter. After coloring, you can ask your child, 'What makes you feel happy like the badger?' or 'What kind gift could we give someone?' to deepen the thanksgiving theme.
Recommended Tools
Double-sided markers with a fine tip and a broad tip are great here. Use the fine tip for the facial expressions and the broad tip to fill in the badger's fur. This helps practice using different tools for different purposes.
