About This Coloring Page
The duck is the bird a child feeds at the pond, and the page draws the best version of it: a friendly duck swimming across the water with two small ducklings paddling behind in a row, a reed on the bank, a smiling sun beside it and a few clouds above.
The duck is one big rounded shape for a toddler to fill, the two ducklings are the same shape drawn small for whoever wants the careful part, and the water is a set of wavy lines to follow with a finger before colouring. Counting the ducks is the first thing to do.
Ask where the ducks are going and whether the little ones can keep up. Then take a handful of oats to the nearest pond, and the page becomes the birds they look for every time they walk past water.

How to Use This Coloring Page
- Count the ducks first. One big, two small. Touch each one and say the number before colouring.
- Fill the big duck in one go. One rounded shape, one colour, beak a different one. Then the two small ones the same.
- Water, reed and sun last. Wavy lines across the pond, one tall reed, a circle with rays. Ask what ducks say.
