Tulip in a Flowerpot
Tilly the tulip has just popped up from her cozy flowerpot. She stretches her leaves each morning and greets everyone with a little nod. Decorate her petals and pot any way you like! Tilly cannot wait to show off her new springtime style.
Tilly’s Pot-Perfect Home
Tilly is growing tall and proud from her own little flowerpot. Her smooth petals are still gathered at the top, while her long leaves stretch out below. A pot gives this tulip a cozy home on a windowsill, porch, or pretend fairy garden. You get to decide where Tilly lives by coloring a background around her. Maybe she is waiting for a sunny spring morning!
Paint Petals and Decorate the Pot
Tulips look lovely in red, pink, yellow, purple, or white, so pick one color or mix several shades across Tilly’s petals. Color her leaves grassy green and add a darker green line down the middle. The flowerpot is your chance to be a designer: use terracotta orange, bright blue, stripes, dots, or tiny hearts. Add brown soil at the top of the pot.
Tulip Facts for Kids
Tulips grow from bulbs, which are round plant parts tucked safely underground. In spring, a green shoot pushes up from the bulb and becomes leaves and a flower. There are thousands of tulip varieties, with petals in many colors and shapes. Tulips often close up at night or on cold days, then open wider when the weather is warmer and brighter.
