Duck Family Out for a Pond Stroll

Coloring guide
A big, smiling mother duck waddles along the edge of a pond, with four little ducklings marching in a neat line behind her. Each duckling has a tiny wing and a happy open beak. Her wing is lifted slightly and her webbed feet are mid-step, so it feels like a real family stroll. Tall cattails and long grass blades fill the upper left and right corners, and a small tuft of grass sits near her feet. At the bottom, two water lilies rest on round lily pads with gentle ripple lines around them. Younger kids can handle the large shapes, and older children can add detail to the feathers and reeds. Soft yellow ducklings, orange beaks and feet, and green and brown cattails work well. It's a free printable that fits a spring or farm-animal theme.
