Dada and the presents
A free Christmas colouring page — A duckling and a stack of wrapped boxes, with the outcome still undecided.
Free to print at home, at nursery or anywhere else. No sign-up, no email.
What is going on here
Two parcels sit stacked on the right, each with a ribbon crossing it and a bow on top, and a bauble hangs down from above. Dada stands beside them, as composed as ever.
What is in the picture
The ribbons split each box into four panels, which is the quiet invitation here — a child who colours the panels separately ends up with wrapping paper rather than a brown box.
Colouring it with a toddler
Good page for trying stripes. The ribbon is the only narrow shape, everything else is wide.
Thick crayons beat pencils at this age — they need no grip strength and they do not break when a child leans on them. A Christmas scene has more in it than a single animal, so expect it to be done over two sittings rather than one.
Who is in it
Colour on screen instead
The same characters are in the PlayKiko colouring game, where tapping an area fills it and nothing goes outside the lines. Useful on a train, where crayons are a mistake.
