🎨 How to color it

Color the goldfish bright orange, the leafy plant spring green, the pebbles soft gray, and the two bubbles pale blue. Use chunky crayons for the fish body and the big round bowl, and do not worry if little hands color over the lines. Try making the tail fins two oranges—one light, one darker—so they look extra swishy.

The story behind this coloring page

Bubbles for Everyone — Round and round went Zippy in his bowl. Swish-swish! Read the full story →

Round and round went Zippy in his bowl. Swish-swish! He wanted to make the biggest bubble parade for the leafy plant and the smooth gray stones.

Up went one bubble. Pop! Up went two. Plip-plop! Then the tiniest pebble wiggled, and out rolled a shiny seed bead nobody had seen.

“Party dot!” said Zippy. He nudged it gently, and every bubble danced around it. Next time you see the little pebble, can you find the surprise that made Zippy go swish-swish?
