Daisy Perch Butterfly Printable for Kids

Coloring guide
Right on the dotted middle of a large flower sits a little butterfly with big sparkly eyes and curly antennae. Its striped body and tiny legs hold onto the center of the bloom, and its two big wings stand upright, decorated with circles, teardrops and scalloped edges. Wide, rounded petals spread out all around, and a long stem runs down to some grass blades with a single leaf at the bottom right. Big shapes and bold lines make this a good match for preschoolers and early elementary kids building pencil control. Purple and pink wings with turquoise circles look lovely, and a sunny yellow flower center will make the butterfly pop. Crayons, markers or watercolors all work well. This fits right in with our Butterfly coloring pages — see also Umbrella and Star.
