Tell a Unicorn Story with Coloring Pages
A unicorn looks at a potted sprout, another picture has a meadow kite, one shows a frog by a pond, and one has a unicorn resting on a cushion. These are four separate pictures. You choose which to use and what happens first, next and last in your story. For an optional connected route, choose the three picnic pictures: the same star-marked unicorn prepares two apples beside a basket, sits with a fox, then folds a plain cloth by the empty basket. The recurring character and props offer clues; you still decide the story and its order.

Choose and print your pictures
Open the picture chooser; all seven choices start checked. Keep two to four pictures for a freely arranged story, or keep only the three picnic pictures for the connected route, then confirm the selected pages. Check the print list and order before printing or downloading a PDF. Three selected pictures use three artwork pages; all seven use seven. Other pictures already in the list count separately, and an optional cover adds one page.
Find one detail in each picture
Notice the sprout in its pot, the kite tied to a post, the frog on a leaf by the pond, or the cushion under the resting unicorn. Point to a detail you want to include in your imagined adventure. In the picnic set, follow the unicorn’s side star and the basket’s curved handle. Find two apples in the first two scenes and the lifted cloth edge in the last. Their changing positions can help you tell what might happen between pictures; there is no written answer.
Make your own story order
Lay the whole sheets on a table in any order. Tell what happens first, then and finally. Try moving a picture and telling a different version; the drawings do not have one correct order or a prewritten story.
Color and tell the story
Choose your colors. If you like, repeat one mane color across the pages to connect your story. Tell it aloud, point to the pictures or ask a grown-up to write down your words on spare paper. Finishing every page is optional.
Another idea
Draw a new scene on spare paper and place it anywhere in your sequence. Keep the sheets whole: no scissors, binding or typing on the website is needed.
