Helping & Learning Panda Coloring Pages

Coloring page story

Pipo loved to listen to the stream sing its song. Bubble, gurgle, bubble. But today, the stream was quiet. The water was brown and muddy. "The stream lost its song," Pipo said sadly. He looked into the water and saw a big pile of old leaves and twigs stuck behind a rock, making the water all muddy.

Plot Twist: The stream wasn't sad, its voice was just blocked!

Pipo used his big, strong paws to push the leaves and twigs away. Swish! The water started to flow freely again. It ran clear and clean over the pebbles, and its happy song returned. Bubble, gurgle, sparkle! Pipo dipped his paw in the cool, singing water.

Coloring page Age Appropriateness

The clear cause-and-effect story (moving leaves makes the water clean) is great for the cognitive development of 3-5 year olds. The large, distinct sections—Pipo, the rock, the water, the fish—allow children to practice staying within the lines without feeling overwhelmed. The action pose of the panda is engaging and fun.

Coloring Page Coloring Instructions

Let's help Pipo clean the stream! You can color the twigs and leaves brown and green. The big rock can be grey or brown. What color will the happy little fish be? You can make them all different colors! And for the water, a beautiful, sparkly blue would show how clean it is now. Pipo is working hard, so let's give him his wonderful black and white fur.

Coloring Page Printing Tips

To get the sharpest black outlines for this Panda illustration, set your printer to its highest quality. Standard 8.5x11 inch paper works perfectly. Printing a few copies is a great idea in case your little artist wants to try different color combinations for the fish!

Recommended Tools

Colored pencils will work well for the smaller fish, allowing for more detail. Broad-tip markers are great for quickly filling in the large areas of water and Pipo's body. Crayons are always a wonderful, classic choice that's safe and easy for little hands to use.
