Why Kids Love This Strawberry Page

The girl kneels right in the patch wearing a big sun hat, two pigtails, a striped shirt under her overalls and rubber boots. One hand reaches for a strawberry while her other arm holds a basket that’s already nicely full. Strawberry plants with white blossoms grow on both sides, and a few berries sit right on the ground. Big shapes and bold lines make it just right for toddlers.

All About Strawberries

Strawberries grow on low plants close to the ground. In spring they bloom with white flowers, and those turn into berries that ripen in early summer. The tiny yellow specks on the outside are actually the plant’s seeds, each tucked inside a tiny fruit of its own. Strawberries don’t keep ripening after they’re picked, so you only pick the fully red ones. Lots of farms let families come and pick their own.

What to Do with Your Finished Strawberry Page

Dip a cotton swab in yellow paint and dab tiny seeds onto every berry for a real-looking finish. Afterward, grab some real strawberries and count the seeds on one together.

Color Ideas for Your Strawberry Page

Red and green are a must – the rest is up to you.

🍓 Berry red

🌿 Leaf green

👒 Straw yellow

💡 Coloring Tip: Color the strawberries red but leave the little dots white, or dab them yellow at the end – the berries will look super juicy.
