Knight and Baby Dragon Share a Picnic Near the Castle
Coloring guide
Sitting cross-legged on the grass, a smiling young knight in a plumed helmet holds an apple and chats with a friendly baby dragon who has an apple too. Between them sits a woven picnic basket with a checkered cloth, packed with apples and a crusty loaf of bread. The little dragon has two horns, spikes down its back, a curly tail and a big wing. Behind them, a grassy hill with bushes and a winding path leads up to a castle with three towers and flags, and small flowers and grass tufts dot the meadow. Kids who like gentle storybook scenes will enjoy this free printable PDF. Red and green work for the apples, soft purple or teal for the dragon, and silver-gray for the knight's helmet and armor, topped with a bright feather plume. Kids who like Castle coloring pages usually enjoy Unicorns and Dragons too.
