Cosmos Meadow Colouring Page

Three breezy cosmos flowers sway on slender stems while a friendly butterfly dances over the meadow. Try pink, magenta, white, pale yellow, orange, or a different cheerful shade on each eight-petalled flower. Colour the round centres golden yellow, the feathery leaves soft green, and the butterfly with a simple two-colour pattern. Use long strokes from each centre to each petal tip, leaving a lighter strip to suggest the petals are gently curved. Begin with the biggest shapes and use gentle pressure for pale colour, then press a little more firmly for strong details. Young artists can fill each section with one solid shade, while older children can blend two related colours, add dots or stripes, and draw extra garden details in the open space. As you work, say the flower name—Cosmos—and notice its special petals, leaves, buds, and centre.
