Problem Solving Puppy Coloring Pages | Lulu's Toy

Coloring page story

Lulu the beagle puppy had a favorite toy: a squeaky pig. She loved to make it go squeak, squeak, SQUEAK! It was the best sound in the world.

One day, Lulu was playing under the big oak tree. She tossed her pig, she pounced on her pig, but when she chomped on it… nothing happened. The squeak was gone! Lulu looked everywhere. She looked under a leaf. She looked behind a flowerpot. No squeak.

She sadly carried her quiet pig inside and dropped it at the feet of her grandma. Grandma picked it up, turned it over, and with a little poke and a wiggle, she fixed it! She gave it back to Lulu, who gave it a hopeful squeeze. SQUEAK! The sound was back! Lulu wagged her tail and covered her grandma in happy puppy kisses.

Coloring page Age Appropriateness

The storytelling nature of this image is excellent for ages 3-5. The focus is on a clear, positive interaction. The shapes are large and distinct—the puppy, the hands, the toy—which helps young children identify the different parts of the story and color them without becoming overwhelmed by complex details.

Coloring Page Printing Tips

Print this page on matte photo paper for a premium feel, almost like a page from a real storybook. This type of paper holds color well and makes the black line art look very sharp. Ensure your printer is not set to 'economy' mode to get the best quality lines for your little puppy artist.

Recommended Tools

Crayons and colored pencils work beautifully here. Colored pencils can be used to add little details like spots on the beagle puppy, while crayons can quickly fill the larger areas. This gives children a choice in how detailed they want to be.
