Coloring order

Color the shiny lid of the open box oven, the box itself and the cookies inside first. A silvery sky blue lid and a brown box work well.
Then color kneeling Nari and Toto beside her, and alternate red and white on the checkered picnic blanket and the plate of cookies.
Last, divide the sunflowers, the garden fence and the rays of the big sun at the top into small areas of yellow and green.

Questions to talk about

What do you think happens to the box oven when the sun hides behind a cloud?
Who would Nari and Toto like to share these cookies with?
Is there a snack you ate on a picnic blanket on an outing?

Take it further

To imagine a solar oven, press a smooth piece of foil inside a box lid and, with a grown-up, just watch the sunlight sparkle on it.

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.
