What’s on this page?
The bear is round and friendly, the trees are full of little leaves, and a squirrel peeks down from a branch to see what happened. Kids love coloring the stars spinning around Finch’s head.
What can you talk about while you color?
Something that looks scary can turn out to be friendly. Ask your child: “Was Finch scared? What do you think the bear said to him?” It opens a conversation about first impressions.
A coloring idea from me
Make the bear any color you like, then add a pattern to the tree leaves: dots, stripes or tiny hearts.
