Lucy's number 6 Spot Surprise Coloring Pages

Coloring page story

Lucy the ladybug was counting her spots. "One, two, three, four, five..." she counted. "All my friends have six spots! Am I missing one?" She felt very worried. She explored her whole garden, asking the ants and the bees if they'd seen her lost spot. No one had. She sat on a flower, feeling sad. A little breeze tickled her back and lifted one of her red wings just a tiny bit. Peeking out from underneath was a tiny, perfect sixth spot! It had been playing hide-and-seek all along.

Coloring page Age Appropriateness

Ideal for 3-5 year olds, this page introduces counting to 'six' in a playful way. The 'hide-and-seek' concept makes counting more engaging than a simple line-up of objects. The large, primary subject is easy for young children to color, building confidence and fine motor skills.

Coloring Page Printing Tips

Ensure your printer settings are on 'normal' or 'high' quality to make the outline of the lifted wing and the hidden sixth spot very clear. Point out the hidden spot to your child before they begin to add to the fun.

Recommended Tools

A classic red crayon is perfect for the ladybug's large body. The waxy texture is satisfying to use. For the flower, markers can provide a nice, solid color that makes the main character pop. This contrast helps focus on counting the six spots.
