Kawaii Puppy on a Flower Cushion

A fluffy puppy with glossy eyes and a flower bow sits neatly on a daisy cushion beside a little potted plant.

🎨 How to color it

Give the puppy warm cream fur, the bow a rosy pink, the cushion sunny yellow daisies, and the potted plant fresh green leaves. Use chunky crayons or markers for the puppy’s big fur areas, and let kids color right over the tiny fur tufts if they want. Try making every cushion flower a different cheerful color, like a secret garden tucked under the puppy’s paws.

Dottie’s Cushion Secret — Under the parlor table, something went tik-tik in the flowerpot. Read the full story →

Under the parlor table, something went tik-tik in the flowerpot. Dottie wanted to hear it before the clock chimed three, so she climbed onto the round cushion and held her paws very still. The cushion smelled like soap, sun, and old thread. Her bow tickled her ears. Tik-tik, hush. Tik-tik, hush.

“Who’s there?” Dottie whispered. A seed in the pot popped open with a papery snap. The tiny daisies sewn around the cushion lifted their faces, as if listening too. Dottie did not bark. She only smiled, and the secret settled in: ever since that quiet afternoon, cushion daisies turn upward so they can hear seeds wake. Next time you see Dottie’s paws, can you find the flowers still listening?
