Smiling Puppy in a Flowerpot

A happy puppy rests both paws on a striped flowerpot while a butterfly and tall daisy share the sunny garden scene.

🎨 How to color it

Color the puppy honey brown, the flowerpot warm terracotta, the tall daisy bright yellow and white, and the butterfly soft lavender. Use chunky crayons for the puppy’s big face and the pot’s wide stripes; it is okay if little hands color past the lines. Try making the triangle band around the pot alternate red and orange like tiny garden flags.

In the flowerpot garden, Suki held one tiny leaf-cup in her mouth. Drip, drip, it smelled like cool rain, and she wanted to give one quiet sip before anyone clapped.

She nudged the dark soil. The tall daisy leaned close. A butterfly went flap-flap by Suki’s nose, then sat on the thirsty petal.

“Oh!” whispered Suki.

She tipped the cup. The daisy drank, the butterfly rested, and nobody saw the small splash shine. Next time you spot Suki’s paws on the pot, can you find the secret sip?
