Daniel Tiger Waiting Patiently at the Bus Stop coloring page
Print this Daniel Tiger coloring sheet! He's waiting at the bus stop. One of the best exercises to impart discipline and habit to small kids.
This comprehensible coloring paper shows a great point of ordinary life and social-emotional learning: Daniel Tiger is trying to be patient when he waits in the community bus stop. The shot must have Daniel, maybe his bag thrown over his back, standing very close to a familiar bus stop sign, with houses, trees, and a sidewalk leading into the background. It is a strong visual device by Daniel Tiger Neighbourhood, as it reflects the strategy when you wait, you can play, sing, or imagine anything. It offers a soft yet familiar background on talking about the sometimes difficult ability to wait, either at the school bus, at a turn, or even at a thing. This page can help parents and educators discuss certain habits, customs at the bus, rules about safety on the bus and how to positively cope with impatience or frustrations. Colouring this peaceful image, children are able to consider their experience of waiting and turn an ordinary moment into a chance to have a creative experience and develop emotionally. This printable is free and can contribute to the development of fine motor skills by carefully colouring the details of the sign and the background, as well as the reinforcement of the key lessons of the show regarding self-regulation, anticipation, or the quiet moments, which organise our days.
How to Color This Page:
Brown this quiet waiting-room with light cool colours. Begin with Daniel Tiger with his clichéd red sweater and yellow stripes. A major feature is the bus stop sign which should be made solid grey or silver with the sign itself being a bright yellow or red to make it noticeable. On the background, a light blue should be used as the sky and light fluffy clouds. The sidewalk and the grass are light grey and fresh green respectively. The surrounding houses may be painted with the friendly and dull colours, such as light blue or beige with coloured doors. Balance empty areas of larger areas such as the sky, the grass, and the clothes worn by Daniel with crayons or markers. Then fine details (use coloured pencils) e.g. the detail of the side walk, letters on the bus stop sign or the leaves on the trees. To drive the point of waiting you could chart an undersized butterfly on the sign and color it in or you can choose a bird on the sky. It aims to produce the relaxing and daily environment, which is both recognisable and tolerant as Daniel.
