PibblyBowl of Mashed Potatoes Coloring Page
Ages 2–4Thick lines, big shapes
Corn on the cob already gives little colorers a simple Thanksgiving food, and mashed potatoes are the other dish many children recognize at the holiday table. This page shows one big round bowl heaped with fluffy potatoes, a pat of butter melting in the middle, and a simple spoon resting beside the bowl. The outlines are thick, the shapes are large, and the background is empty, so toddlers can finish it in a few minutes with a chunky crayon. There is no writing and no steam that looks like letters. Grown-ups can talk about hot and cold, and about the butter melting, while the child fills the bowl, the butter and the spoon in different colors.
Try this: Make mashed potatoes together, or press play dough into a small bowl and add a yellow play-dough pat of butter on top.

Printing and age tips
Leave the butter pale yellow and color the potatoes a slightly deeper yellow so the melting pat still shows in the middle of the bowl.
