Free Stories Colouring Page | Nursery / LKG | English | BookFlik

Bring the magic of storytelling to your classroom with our delightful English stories colouring page eyfs core resource. Designed specifically for children aged 3 to 5, this activity features our friendly character, Pip the bookworm caterpillar, curled up with a giant book of fairy tales. As children bring Pip to life with their crayons, they develop essential fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination, which are foundational for early writing and mark-making.

This English stories colouring page eyfs core resource is perfectly aligned with the CBSE / NCERT Curriculum for the Early Years Foundation Stage. It supports the Literacy area of learning by encouraging children to engage with books and narratives. Teachers can use this sheet as a calming transition activity after a group storytime session, or as a creative prompt to start a discussion about favourite characters and plot twists. By focusing on Pip, children are invited to explore the joy of reading in a low-pressure, artistic environment.

This resource is differentiated for learners working at the expected standard. It includes five core questions to deepen understanding:

1. Can you name the character on the page?

2. If you were writing a story about Pip, what would happen next?

3. How many books can you see in the background?

4. What colours would you choose to make Pip look happy?

5. If Pip went to the shop to buy a new storybook that cost £2, how many £1 coins would he need?

By integrating this English stories colouring page eyfs core activity into your lesson plan, you provide a wonderful opportunity for children to express their creativity while building a positive association with books.
