Sleepy Puppy in Bed Coloring Page

About this page

Tucked into a small wooden bed, a sleeping puppy rests its head on a pillow with its eyes closed and a gentle smile. Only the face and two front paws poke out above a patchwork quilt. The quilt is made of square patches, some filled with circles, some with vertical stripes and some left plain, so it looks like a checkerboard of textures. The bed has a curved headboard topped with two round knobs and short legs at the foot. The ears flop on both sides of the pillow. It is a tightly framed picture that fills the page with a strong, symmetrical shape. The quilt is the star, offering many compact squares to fill with different colors and patterns. This medium page is a calm choice for kids who like cozy bedtime scenes.
