Easy coloring page of a smiling baby elephant with big ears and a flower held by its curled trunk

Smiling Baby Elephant Holding a Flower

A happy baby elephant closes both eyes and curls its trunk around a big-petaled flower beside one cheek.

🎨 How to color it

Color the baby elephant soft gray, the big ear centers pale pink, and the flower petals sunny yellow with an orange middle. For toddlers, use chunky crayons on the wide head, ears, and petals; staying inside the thick lines is optional. Try making the curled trunk a little darker gray so it stands out while it holds the flower.

Nico’s Quiet Flower Secret — Beside the muddy riverbank, Nico sniffed for one sweet leaf. Sniff-sniff! Read the full story →

Beside the muddy riverbank, Nico sniffed for one sweet leaf. Sniff-sniff! He stepped out from the cool shade, squish-squash through soft mud, and got his toes all brown.

Then a tiny beetle bumped a droopy flower. “Sip?” it squeaked. Nico knew a secret: nobody was watching. He carried the flower to the river, gave it a splash, and brought it back bright and wet. No sweet leaf—but the flower smelled like honey. Can you spot Nico’s secret smile from the muddy riverbank?
