Coloring order

Start with the sunset clouds, the setting sun, the curling waves and the little sailboat, then color the striped lighthouse in alternating red and white.
Color Beaconfin's wavy scales teal and sky blue, the belly and chest pearly cream, and mix teal, cream and coral orange across the feathers of the big wing.
Make the circle in the middle of the fan tail glow yellow like a lighthouse beam and the claws navy, then finish the cliff steps, rocks and flowers in another session.

Questions to talk about

What do you think Beaconfin is watching for from the edge of the cliff?
Can you find all the seabirds in the sky? How many are there?
What does a lighthouse do for ships at night?

Take it further

Paint red and white stripes on a paper cup or cardboard tube to make a small lighthouse, then shine a flashlight on it and make up a story about Beaconfin guiding a boat home.

Age and time are rough guides for a child coloring alone with pencils or crayons; every child is different. The area count is an estimate counted from the line-art image.

Printing and coloring tips

Print on A4 or Letter in portrait to keep the original proportions.
Keep the finished version open beside you while you color.
Use slightly heavier paper with water-based markers so the ink shows through less.
Fill the large areas first and leave the small ones for later.
The finished version is only a suggestion. Any colors you like will work.
