Picnic Reading Time with Cute Kids Under a Tree

On a checkered picnic blanket, a boy and a girl sit cross-legged, each holding an open picture book and smiling as they read. His book shows a sun and a tree on a hill, and hers shows a little bunny beside a flower. A big leafy tree with a thick trunk spreads across the top of the page, with grass tufts and a round bush in the background. At the front corner of the blanket you'll see a woven picnic basket and a single apple. There are lots of small shapes here, which makes this free printable good for steady crayon work. Red for the apple, golden yellow for the sun in the boy's book, and a mix of greens for the leaves would work well. The checkered blanket is also a nice way to practice alternating colors, like blue and white. This fits right in with our Cute coloring pages — see also Family and Vegetable.
