What's In This Picture

The center of the page showcases a happy boy wearing an apron, holding a large mixing bowl and a sturdy spoon. On the kitchen counter, a cookie sheet is filled with round balls of dough waiting for their turn in the heat. Just below the counter, the oven door has a clear window where you can spot another tray of cookies already baking to perfection.

The background is filled with interesting details to color. There are shelves lined with ingredient jars, a heavy bag of flour with a scoop, and even a little bit of spilled batter on the counter that adds a realistic touch. You will also find various pots and pans hanging nearby, a cheerful potted plant sitting by the window, and assorted kitchen utensils tucked into holders.

Coloring Tips

For the cookies, try using different shades of light brown and tan to give them a golden-brown, freshly baked look. You can add small dark dots for chocolate chips or colorful circles for candy-coated pieces. The boy's apron and the kitchen walls provide a great opportunity to use your favorite bright colors, like sunny yellow or sky blue, to keep the mood feeling light and happy.

Consider using a metallic grey or silver crayon for the oven and the pots and pans to make them look like real kitchen appliances. If you want to add some depth, use a light blue or very pale grey for the window glass. Since there is a bit of spilled batter and a flour bag, you might leave those areas mostly white or use a very light cream color to show the messy fun of baking.

Did You Know?

Did you know that the very first chocolate chip cookie was created by accident? In 1938, a baker named Ruth Wakefield ran out of baker's chocolate and used broken pieces of a semi-sweet chocolate bar instead. She expected them to melt into the dough, but they stayed in little chunks, creating the world-famous treat we love today!
