Prism the Detective's Mystery Coloring Pages

Coloring page story

Prism didn't just see the world in white; he saw it in rainbows. When the light hit him just right, he'd flash with colors. He was also a detective. "There's always a story," he'd say, "if you just look for the clues." For his first Christmas, he was determined to solve a mystery.

He landed on a frosty windowsill next to a curious sight: a plate with a glass of milk and a single, half-eaten carrot. Clue #1: An unfinished snack. Who would eat a carrot like that? Not a person. Maybe a rabbit? Hmm. Then he noticed tiny red smudges on the rim of the glass. Clue #2: Red smudges. He also heard a faint jingle from far away, high in the sky. Clue #3: A mysterious jingle. Just then, a little boy tiptoed into the room and peered at the plate. "He came! He really came!" the boy whispered, his eyes wide with wonder.

He looked right at the window. "I hope Rudolph liked his carrot!" he said before scampering back to bed. Prism flashed with a brilliant rainbow. Case closed! The half-eaten carrot was for a reindeer named Rudolph. The red smudges were from the big, red suit of the man who brought him. And the jingle? It must have been from his sleigh! Prism the Detective had landed right in the middle of Santa's visit. It was the best Christmas mystery a snowflake could ever hope to solve.

Coloring page Age Appropriateness

Kids 6-8 love a good mystery, and this 'Adventure Journey' style turns coloring into a fun game of I-Spy. The clues are clear and easy to identify, and the objects are large enough to color easily, which encourages visual storytelling and observation.

Coloring Page Coloring Instructions

Hello, Detective! It's time to solve the mystery. First, let's color the clues. The carrot should be orange, and the milk is white, but you can color the glass any color you like. Look out the window! Can you see who is flying away? Color Santa's sleigh a bright red! And Prism the snowflake can be all the colors of the rainbow!

Coloring Page Printing Tips

To ensure the distant sleigh is clear, use a good quality print setting. This will keep the lines sharp. Printing on sturdy paper will also make it feel like a real detective's case file!

Recommended Tools

Fine-tip markers are great for this page to make the clues pop with vibrant color. A red marker for the sleigh and an orange one for the carrot will make them stand out. Colored pencils can be used for the night sky and for adding rainbow colors to Prism.
