Coloring Scene 3 Sandy Desert With Cactus Coloring Page

Meet the star of this Sandy Desert With Cactus coloring page: a cute sandy desert with cactus, shown with a smaller mini version of itself beside it. Kids can talk about the scene before they start, guess what happens next, then bring it to life with color. This free printable is ready to download and print at home or in the classroom, and works well for rainy-day play and weekend crafts. As they color, Ages 4–9 children develop fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination, pencil control, observation skills, nature vocabulary -- and along the way, they can learn three new words: succulent, dune, desert. A cactus's sharp spines help protect it from thirsty animals and even provide it a little shade.
