The duck arrives at the river and unpacks: a backpack, a picnic basket and a small wooden dock reaching into the water. Cattails grow at the edge and the trees lean over. The duck waves — friends are coming.
Printing and coloring tips
Print at 100% on Letter or A4. Plain 80–100 gsm copy paper is fine for crayons and colored pencils; for markers, use thicker paper or put a scrap sheet underneath so the ink doesn't bleed through. Detailed scenes like this one are easier with fine-tip markers or sharpened pencils.
Ideas for this page
- Color the water in light and dark blues.
- Color the cattails brown and green.
Questions
What are the tall plants by the water?
