Easy Storybook Character Coloring PageHolding a Mushroom and Stick

A cheerful garden gnome wearing a tall floppy hat and heavy boots clutches a small capped mushroom with one hand and a crooked wooden twig in the other. Toddlers enjoy sweeping soft wax crayons across the wide tunic and round beard, though the tiny jacket buttons need careful coloring with a sharp pencil. Try shading the tall cap in bright red and the heavy shoes in dark brown. Cut out the finished gnome to use as a whimsical bookmark for a favorite fantasy novel.
