🎨 How to color it

Color the hen buttery yellow with a red comb, the wooden coop honey brown, the egg box pale tan, and the grass fresh green. Use chunky crayons or markers for the hen’s big body and the coop roof, then switch to a sharper crayon tip for the tiny seeds and plank lines. Try making the sun extra golden so the hen’s smile looks like it caught a bit of morning light.

The story behind this coloring page

Pippa and the Whisper Seeds — Under the warm coop steps, Pippa scratched for breakfast. Tap-tap. Read the full story →

Under the warm coop steps, Pippa scratched for breakfast. Tap-tap. A shiny black beetle nudged one seed, then another, making a little trail across the dusty yard.

Pippa stepped out from her shady spot. The grass tickled her toes, and the sun made the fence smell like warm wood. “Wait for me!” she clucked. She followed the beetle past the egg box and paid one price: her favorite seed dropped into a crack. At the last seed, Pippa saw the trail made a secret arrow pointing home.

Back at the coop, a new nest of straw waited behind the egg box, soft as whispers. Next time you see those scattered seeds, can you find where Pippa’s curiosity ran?
