About this picture
Perched on a branch with a visible wood-grain knot, this owl has big round eyes and a scalloped pattern of feathers running down its chest that's worth coloring row by row. A crescent moon and two stars keep the night sky simple, with a couple of leaves hanging off the branch nearby. The feather scallops make this a good page for practicing a repeating pattern in one or two alternating colors.

Coloring ideas
- Alternate two browns or tans across the chest feather scallops to make the pattern pop against a plain-colored body.
- Use a deep blue or purple for the night sky so the moon and stars stand out brighter by contrast.
- Color the branch's wood-grain knot a darker brown than the rest of the bark to make it stand out.
- Give the owl's big round eyes a bold color like yellow or orange to make them the center of attention.
Learning and creativity connection
Recognizing and continuing a pattern is an early math skill, and coloring one out row by row turns that abstract idea into something visual and hands-on.
