Coloring page Cheerful Duck in a Lily Pond

A cheerful duck splashes in the water, spreading its wings wide. It has big eyes, a broad beak, and a small tuft of feathers on its head. Ripples appear beneath its feet, and droplets scatter around. Water lily leaves float nearby, each with distinct lines in the center.

This picture is perfect for quiet activities in preschool after snack time, as kids wait to be picked up. The duck and water theme helps children recognize elements of nature and name animal body parts. This printable offers plenty of space for filling in large, simple shapes. It can also spark conversations about how animals behave on water, creating waves as they move. The tuft of feathers is a small detail, while feathers help birds stay warm and dry. When coloring this tuft, choose yellow and orange to distinguish it from the rest of the head and highlight the duck’s cheerful expression. Use crayons to fill in the outlines, making short strokes in the direction of the feathers.

Color the duck and lilies, then hang your artwork in the classroom.
