Easter Bunny Giving a Big Carrot Hug in the Garden
Coloring guide
Standing up on its hind legs, this happy bunny hugs a carrot nearly as big as it is. It has a wide smile and big sparkling eyes, and the long ears are outlined on the inside. The carrot's leafy top curls up next to the bunny's head. Round cabbage heads sit on both sides of the garden bed behind it, and little carrot sprouts peek out of the soil in the bottom corners. Bold, clean lines and roomy open areas make it friendly for younger kids still working on staying inside the lines, while the cabbages and leaves give older kids small spots to shade. Orange works well for the carrot, with soft gray or lavender on the bunny and a few different greens for the leaves and cabbages. It's a free printable that fits spring and Easter nicely. This fits right in with our Easter coloring pages — see also Disney Easter and Fall.
