What's In This Picture

At the center of this page, a round ladybug sits comfortably on the veins of a large, detailed leaf. The ladybug has several distinct spots on its back, waiting for a splash of color. Surrounding the leaf are several flowers with round centers and soft petals, creating a lush garden environment.

High above the garden, a cheerful sun with a friendly face shines down, accompanied by a single, soft cloud. The lines are clear and easy to follow, making it simple to distinguish between the beetle, the foliage, and the bright sky elements. Each part of the scene connects to create a warm, sunny day in the life of a tiny insect.

Coloring Tips

While most people think of ladybugs as bright red with black spots, you can try using orange or even yellow for a different look. Use a deep green for the large leaf to help the beetle stand out. For the flowers, a variety of bright pinks, purples, and blues will make the garden look vibrant and full of life.

To add some depth, try coloring the edges of the cloud with a very light blue or grey. The sun looks wonderful in a mix of bright yellow and warm orange. Since the lines are moderately thick, markers or crayons work beautifully to fill in the spaces without much worry about overlapping the edges.

Did You Know?

Did you know that a ladybug can eat up to 5,000 insects in its lifetime? Farmers and gardeners love them because they help protect plants by eating tiny pests called aphids. Also, the spots on a ladybug actually fade as they get older.

Try This!

After coloring, try to count all the spots on the ladybug and the petals on the flowers. You can also go outside and see if you can find a real ladybug living on a leaf in your own backyard or a local park.
