Snake Sniffing a Tall Daisy Near a Butterfly

Coloring guide
Rising out of tall grass, this cartoon snake flicks its tongue toward a big daisy on a long stem. Its round eyes glance up and to the side, and its mouth curls into a happy smile. Large round spots cover the body, and a striped belly runs down the curved neck as it coils across the bottom of the page. In the top left, a small butterfly flutters along a dotted path with a little loop. The daisy has one large leaf on its stem, and grass tufts fill the front. Bold outlines and roomy spaces work well for crayons or chunky markers. Yellow and orange spots, soft purple petals and a sky-blue butterfly would be pretty. Handy for classroom time or a rainy day.

A suggested order, zone by zone — skip around as you like.
- 1Start by coloring the snake's head and body in bright green, leaving the eye whites bare so the eyes stay bright.
- 2Fill the flower petals with sky blue and the flower center with golden yellow.
- 3Color the snake's belly stripes and the butterfly's body in pale yellow, then add tangerine orange to the snake's spots.
- 4Paint the butterfly's wings in violet purple and add hot pink spots to the wing centers.
- 5Finish the big leaves, stem leaves, and grass tufts in forest green and leaf green, and touch up the rest of the grass in bright green.
- 6Optional: add a few darker strokes of forest green along the edges of the snake's body and leaves for a little depth.
