Paddling Joy: A Duckling's First Dip

Fun Fact

Did you know that ducklings can swim almost immediately after they hatch? Their waterproof feathers, thanks to a special oil, help them float and paddle like pros from day one!

Coloring Tips

1. 1🎨 Fluffy Feathers - Use soft yellows, light oranges, or even a very pale brown for the duckling's downy feathers. Try short, feathery strokes!
2. 2🖍️ Watery World - Create a calm pond with shades of blue and green. You can press harder in some areas and lighter in others to show gentle ripples.
3. 3✨ Lush Lily Pads - Color the round lily pads in various greens, adding a touch of darker green for shadows or a lighter green for a sunny spot.
4. 4🌈 Brighten the Scene - Think about the background! Maybe a sunny sky with soft clouds, or tall green reeds along the pond's edge to make your duckling pop.
