A puppy stands in profile with a tag on its collar, a string of fairy lights running across the top of the sheet, snowflakes drifting on both sides and a Christmas stocking hanging on the right. Every bulb on that string is its own small shape, and colouring them in a repeating sequence of three, the way a real string does, is most of the work and most of the pleasure. Leave the snowflakes white or they turn the page grey. From five. Its Halloween twin is Halloween Dog in a Pumpkin.
Coloring ideas for this page
- Rotate red, green and gold along the string of lights.
- A scarlet stocking, the one big shape left to fill.
