Coloring page story
A beautiful water lily lived in a sparkling pond. But one day, some trash floated into the water. Plop. A plastic bottle. Plunk. An old wrapper. The water started to get murky and sad. The lily felt sick. "I can't breathe," she coughed. Her frog and fish friends were sad, too.
They didn't know what to do. Then, two children came to the pond with their grandpa. They saw the trash. "Oh no! The pond is dirty," said one child. (Unexpected Twist) The children didn't just walk away. They got a little net and, with their grandpa's help, they carefully scooped out all the trash. They cleaned the whole pond. The water became clear and sparkly again. The lily stretched her petals in the clean water and whispered, "Thank you, helpers!"
Coloring page Age Appropriateness
This design is excellent for 3-5 year olds as it presents a clear, positive solution to a problem. The visual storytelling is straightforward. The large shapes of the lily, lily pad, and the netted trash are easy for small hands to identify and color, reinforcing the lesson in a tangible way.
Coloring Page Coloring Instructions
You can be a helper, just like the children in the story! Look, they cleaned the pond. Now the water lily is happy. Let's give her beautiful, happy colors. What color will her petals be? The big lily pad can be a lovely green. And the water is sparkling clean now, so you can color it a bright, shiny blue! Thank you for helping make the pond beautiful!
Coloring Page Printing Tips
Print a few copies of this page to discuss the story with a group of children. Use standard paper and a clear print setting. This page serves as a great conversation starter about littering and taking care of our local parks and ponds.
Recommended Tools
A set of washable markers is great for making the clean pond and happy lily look vibrant. Crayons are perfect for the lily pad and other elements. This is also a good opportunity to talk about recycling while coloring the bottle and wrapper in the net.
