Joy Gives Sadness a Potted Flower to Hold

Joy Gives Sadness a Potted Flower to Hold coloring page

Coloring guide

Two animated characters stand face to face in front of a wall packed with rows of round circles. On the left, Joy leans forward with a small smile and holds out a flower pot in both hands. The flower has a round head with petals and a thin stem. On the right, Sadness stands with her hands tucked close to her chest. She wears big round glasses and a chunky turtleneck sweater, and her eyebrows and mouth look worried. Joy has short spiky hair and a simple sleeveless dress, and she is barefoot. The big open shapes are easy for small hands, while the rows of circles behind them give older kids something detailed to work on. Try coloring the circles in a pattern of several shades, then pick a bright color for the flower so it stands out. It could also start a chat about how kind gestures feel when someone is having a hard day.
