Ribbit, ribbit!! The croak of the frog is a sound that may not be very melodious or pleasing to the ear, but still is one that many of us await, for it is the presage of the approach of the most refreshing of all seasons – the monsoon season.

This season arrives with a bolt of thunder, a clap of lightning, and leaves behind a fresh, new world – a treasure trove of emeralds, with other delicate gemstones scattered among them, causing an occasional, unexpected spurt of color - all covered by a vast bowl made of a magical substance that remodels itself relentlessly – smoking copper at daybreak, light and airy marble during the day (with the largest, shiniest and inaccessible gold coin ever seen jangling around from one end to the other), bronze at dusk, and deep, velvety blue-black granite at night, scattered with tiny diamonds, with a huge, enormous globule of the most perfect and pure pearl ever seen by the human (and other) eye.


The frog, an animal that looks quite slimy, and is definitely no beauty-pageant winner, is actually quite an interesting creature. It also has a special place in many fairy tales. In real life, though, it is not only mysteriously forewarned about the approaching rains but is also a creature that enjoys them when they come, without any hesitation whatsoever, unlike us human beings, who have created such binding rules of ‘civilized’ living that we have forgotten to remember what it feels like to forget yourself in the showers, with the poring threads of water easing all the strain away from the body.

Frogs have long since captured the attention of our very highly perceptive and energetic band of chaos-wreaking hooligans, namely, our kids, and tend to fascinate them quite a lot. While girls, as a principle, never touch anything that has a slimy skin, and is hence “disgusting” to even look at, boys love catching hold of these not-exactly-cute creatures in their palms and then releasing them, for the pure and simple joy of being noticed (“Show offs!” I’m sure all the girls must be thinking just the way I do). Anyway, I suppose that if you wish to enhance your child’s learning abilities and enthusiasm about any task whatsoever in his life, the right time is now. Get him a set of free printable frog coloring pages from the internet, and let him color it at his leisure.

These frog coloring pages are available on the internet, to download and print while sitting at home. They will not only sharpen your kids’ thirst for knowledge, but will also help quench it, by providing a fun-filled means of education at home.

So help your kid learn, and watch him enjoy the miracles of Nature and acknowledge Her, through the basic first step of giving him his own set of frog coloring pages.
