Lost Mitten Adventure winter Coloring Pages for Kids

Coloring page story

Lily had two bright red mittens, a perfect pair. But as she made a big, round snow angel, one of them wriggled off her hand and hid in the snow. "Oh no!" cried Lily when she got inside. "My mitten is lost!" Outside, the little red mitten felt lonely. A tiny field mouse scurried by. "You look warm," squeaked the mouse, shivering. The mouse snuggled inside the mitten's fuzzy cuff. It was the coziest bed he'd ever found. Just then, Lily and her daddy came out with a flashlight. They spotted a speck of red in the snow. "There you are!" Lily said, picking it up gently. The mouse scurried out with a thankful squeak. Lily put her warm mitten back in her pocket, and the mouse went home to dream of his soft, red sleeping bag.

Coloring page Age Appropriateness

The 'Round & Soft Cartoon' style is perfect for the 3-5 age group because it avoids sharp angles and complex details. The large, singular outline of the mitten is an easy target for developing motor skills, and the friendly, simple mouse outline is appealing. The concept of a cozy mitten in winter is comforting and easy for young children to grasp.

Coloring Page Coloring Instructions

Look at this cozy mitten all alone in the snow! But wait, who is that peeking out? It's a little mouse! Can you give the mitten a bright, warm color? Maybe red, just like in the story, or your favorite color! Then you can color the tiny mouse. The ground is all snow, so you could color it a soft blue or leave it white and sparkly. Just remember to use your beautiful colors to fill in all the empty white spaces inside the black lines.

Coloring Page Printing Tips

Print this page on slightly heavier paper to give it a quality feel, like a real page from a coloring book. Ensure your printer settings are on 'black and white' and 'best quality' to make the round, soft outline strokes clear and inviting for your little artist to color in this winter scene.

Recommended Tools

Fat crayons or washable markers with a broad tip are excellent for filling in the large mitten outline. Colored pencils can be used by slightly older children in this age group who are developing a finer pincer grasp. Let your child choose their favorite tool to make the experience more personal and fun.
