Girl With Braids Watering Big Patterned Flowers

A smiling girl with two braids tied in bows stands on a small grassy hill, holding a watering can in one hand while she reaches out to touch a flower with the other. She wears a puffy-sleeved top with buttons, a bow at the collar, a pleated skirt with a ruffled hem, and little strapped shoes. The watering can has a small flower drawn on its side. Three large flowers with layered, swirly petals and detailed centers grow beside her on tall stems with simple leaves, and a sun with short rays shines at the top. The flower petals have lots of little patterns, so they work well for practicing small, careful strokes. Try giving each flower a different color combination, using one color for the outer petals and another for the inner rings. Fine-tip markers or colored pencils will help in the tiny areas. Print as many copies as you need for a spring classroom activity.
