Sailor Banana Paddling a Peel Boat Past Ducks
Coloring guide
Wearing a sailor hat with an anchor badge, a smiling banana sits in a boat made from an open banana peel and holds a long paddle in both hands. The paddle dips into rippling pond water. Two little ducks float on either side, one left and one right. A water lily with a lily pad sits at the lower left, and another blooms near the right edge. Tall cattails stand on both banks with rounded bushes behind them, and a sun with rays shines in the upper right corner. Wide water ripples and big shapes like the peel boat and lily pads are easy for small hands. Bright yellow for the banana and soft pink for the water lilies is a good place to start.
