Tree
Toddler · 2–3A friendly tree with a leafy green top and a sturdy trunk. The big round leaves and the trunk give two simple areas to color. It is a lovely way to talk about trees, the outdoors, and the seasons. Print it on A4 or US Letter, or color it online with tap-to-fill. A great fit for a nature or seasons theme at home or in the classroom.
A trunk and a mass of leaves
The standard child's tree is a brown stick with a green cloud on top, and this page is drawn that way on purpose. It matches what children already produce, which means they recognise it immediately rather than being confronted with a version they cannot draw.
The leaves are one region rather than many, which is the right simplification. A tree does not have countable leaves and pretending otherwise would make the page unfinishable.
The same tree through the year
Print this page four times and colour the leaves green, then yellow and orange, then bare brown, then green again with small buds. Four copies of one drawing is the clearest way to show a child what the seasons actually do, and it is far more convincing than a book about it.
Frequently asked questions
- How do I teach the seasons with this page?
- Print it four times and colour one for each season — green, autumn colours, bare, then new spring growth. Seeing the same tree change is what makes the cycle land.
- What age is this page for?
- Two to five. Three simple regions with generous areas.
