A SIMPLE START

Print it and begin.

Pick three or four favorite colors and work around the circle by matching opposite petals. The repeated choices create a gentle symmetry puzzle, but there is no single right result. Quiet music and a grown-up coloring alongside can turn it into a slow-down activity rather than a task to finish.

GROWN-UP TIP

Leave room for their version.

quiet music and one grown-up coloring beside them make this calming. There is no wrong way to color.
