Coloring order

Start with Sparky's round face and chubby body in red or orange, then color the big oval on the belly a soft, pale yellow.
Pick a different color for the two little horns on top of the head and the two bat-style wings so they stand out from the body.
Color the small flame shape at the tip of the tail in yellow and orange, and finish the eyes with your darkest color.

Questions to talk about

What shape does the flame at the end of Sparky's tail look like to you?
This baby dragon is smiling wide. What good thing might have just happened?
Can you remember a day when you were so happy you couldn't stop smiling?

Take it further

Tear yellow and orange paper into flame shapes and glue one to Sparky's tail tip. Then invent a brand-new tail-tip shape and give it a name.

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.
