Common questions about this coloring page
Talk about typical summer colors: blue for the sky or sea, yellow for the sun, green for leaves, red for strawberries or cherries. Show real photos or look out the window together to compare colors. Emphasize that it's also okay for them to have their own ideas!
For preschoolers, it's best to keep it simple. Point to the brightest spots and say: "The sun shines very strongly here, so it's brighter." For shadows, you can suggest using a slightly darker shade of the same color or simply sticking to the main color. The focus is on recognizing light and shadow, not perfect shading.
The simple, clear outlines of these summer pictures are ideal. Encourage your child to color slowly and make small circles instead of large, fast movements. Praise every attempt to stay within the lines and emphasize that practice makes perfect. Coloring large areas here is a great exercise.
The summer pictures often feature motifs like a radiant sun, a sandy beach with shells, an ice cream, flowers, or playing children. Name the objects and ask your child if they have seen or experienced these things in summer before. Tell short stories about them to reinforce the connection to summer.
