Frog Prince With A Crown Colouring Page

This frog sits square to the viewer, arms tucked at his sides, with his two back legs splayed wide and his two front feet meeting in the middle. He wears a crown with three points, each tipped with a small round jewel, sitting neatly between his big round eyes. His eyes are already solid black with a tiny white highlight, so there is nothing to colour there. Below them are two small nostril dots and a wide curving smile. In the centre of his body is a large oval belly, and each of his four feet ends in a spread of little toes: three on the front feet, five on the splayed back feet.

Most of this page is made up of big, forgiving shapes: the rounded head, the wide body, and that oval belly all give a young child plenty of room to colour without worrying about staying inside tight lines. The crown jewels and the toes are the fiddly bits, small enclosed shapes that ask for a slower hand and a finer pencil or crayon tip. It is a nice page to talk through while colouring, counting the three points on the crown or the toes on each foot, and deciding whether the prince should be green like a pond frog or a made-up colour entirely.

The thick, simple outlines and large body areas make this an easy sheet overall, well suited to a two or three year old colouring their first frog. The small crown and toe details give slightly older preschoolers, up to about five, something to slow down for without making the page frustrating for a beginner.
