Smiling Teapot and Hot Cross Buns for Good Friday

Coloring guide
Here is a happy teapot with a round knob on its lid, sitting next to a small teacup. Both have big eyes, rosy cheeks and tiny smiles. A large round plate in front holds four hot cross buns, each with a wide cross on top and little currants scattered over it. The cup is drawn filled with tea, and the plate has a double rim that is simple to color. Lines are bold and shapes are big, so preschoolers and early elementary kids should do well with it, and it makes an easy Good Friday morning activity at home or in class. Golden brown and tan work for the buns, with darker brown dots for the currants. A soft pastel blue or pink on the teapot and cup will help them pop from the plate.

A suggested order, zone by zone — skip around as you like.
- 1Color the teapot body, spout, handle and knob in butter yellow, leaving the small inner part of the handle white.
- 2Fill the hot cross buns with caramel orange, working around the cream crosses and the small dark dots you want to leave light.
- 3Color the cross shapes on each bun in cream so they look soft and bright against the brown.
- 4Fill the teacup, saucer, teapot lid and base, and the plate with sky blue, keeping the background and the tiny highlights white.
- 5Add the tea inside the cup in chocolate brown and leave the eyes and smiles as they are.
- 6Optional: add a little darker shading on the lower edges of the buns and the teapot for a bit of depth.
