Three tall tulips with long leaves, grass, and tiny wildflowers in an easy flower coloring page.

Three Tall Tulips in a Wildflower Patch

Three tulips rise above a busy patch of grass, with slim leaves and tiny flowers tucked around their stems.

🎨 How to color it

Color the three tulip blooms coral pink, sunny yellow, and lavender, then use bright green for the tall leaves and soft blue for the tiny wildflowers in the grass. The tulip petals are big and smooth, so chunky crayons can make broad, happy fills while a sharper pencil helps with the little blossoms below. Try making the tallest middle tulip a little lighter at the top, as if a secret morning glow is sitting inside it.

The story behind this coloring page

The Moon-Drop Game — Under the three tall tulips, Tessa tapped a seed shell: tick, tick, tick. Read the full story →

Under the three tall tulips, Tessa tapped a seed shell: tick, tick, tick. She had invented the Moon-Drop Game before breakfast—catch one shiny dew drop, carry it past the grass blades, and leave it where the smallest sprout could drink. The patch smelled like wet dirt and sleepy petals. Tessa stepped out from her soft leaf tent with her acorn cup, but the grass was cold and taller than her knees. A beetle rolled by, bump-bump, and knocked the cup against a stone. Half the dew spilled into the dark soil.

“Shh,” whispered Tessa, though no one was there to hear. She almost went home. Then she noticed the spilled dew sliding along a tiny root tunnel, straight to three drooping wildflowers. Their heads lifted, one by one, in the silver light. Tessa gave the last drop to the small sprout anyway and walked back with an empty cup and muddy toes. Next time you peek among the grass below the tulips, see if you can find where the moon-drops went: tick, tick, tick.
