Ribbit!
Ribbit! Ribbit!
That's what your kids will be saying all afternoon as they turn this giant city amphibian into a colorful delight. Children's book author and illustrator, Melanie Hope Greenberg, created this amusing and adorable frog coloring page for budding herpetologists!
This frog coloring page features a giant, smiling frog miles away from his natural habitat. Instead, he is perched on a city street surrounded by skyscrapers. How did he get there?
Mysteriously, two humans run away in fear, while a third waves at the oversized croaker in delight. There's a story there for sure, and your kids will no doubt enjoy using their imaginations to narrate the tale to you.
So, plug in the printer, get out the colored pencils, put on a pond-noises soundscape and take a break while your child has some quiet time with a cute frog coloring page.
