Ollie Owl Hears the summer Coloring Book

Coloring page story

Bella the Bunny lay on her back in a field of soft, green clover. The summer sun warmed her furry tummy. She wasn't looking at the flowers or the bees. She was looking up, up, up at the big, blue sky.

Puffy white clouds were drifting by. "It's a sky parade!" she whispered.

First, she saw a cloud that looked just like a fluffy sheep. Baa! went Bella. Then came a long, thin cloud that looked like a friendly dragon. Roar! she giggled. A big, round cloud floated by that looked like her papa's tummy after a big lunch. Bella waved at the clouds until the sun made her sleepy, and she dreamt of floating in the big, quiet, summer sky parade.

Coloring page Age Appropriateness

This concept is fantastic for ages 3-5, as it taps directly into their budding imagination. The large, clearly defined cloud shapes are fun and easy to color. The activity of cloud-gazing is a calm and peaceful summer pastime, making this a great quiet-time coloring sheet. The bunny character is sweet and relatable.

Coloring Page Coloring Instructions

Let's look at the sky with Bella! The big sky can be a beautiful blue. The clouds are usually white, but in your picture, they can be any color you dream of! Can you color the sheep-cloud white and fluffy? What about the friendly dragon? Maybe he's a green dragon! And Bella is resting in the nice green grass on a lovely summer day.

Coloring Page Printing Tips

To give this page an airy feel, print it on light blue paper. This way, the sky is already colored, and your child can focus on the fun cloud shapes and Bella the Bunny. Use a standard print quality to keep the lines of the clouds nice and puffy.

Recommended Tools

Cotton balls! For a fun, sensory experience, your child can glue cotton balls onto the cloud shapes to make them look extra fluffy. For coloring, using the side of a blue crayon is a great way to fill in the large sky area quickly and smoothly.
