Coloring order

Start with the sky and clouds, the trees and rolling fields behind, the red barn and windmill, and the hay bales and wooden fence, in sky blue, greens, red and yellow.
Color Solseed's petal scales and the top of the wings sunflower yellow and burnt orange, the wing membrane cream, and the seed-pattern scales on the chest cream with brown.
Add the green leaves tucked between the scales, the bud-shaped horns and the big claws, then color the large sunflowers up front, keeping the yellow petals separate from the brown seed centers.

Questions to talk about

What is Solseed checking on as it walks between the sunflowers?
Which parts of Solseed look like a sunflower?
How could Solseed help out on the farm?

Take it further

Look closely at the center of a sunflower, in a photo or a real flower, and notice how the seeds line up, then try drawing that pattern yourself.

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.
