A blanket covers the top of a girl's head on this scared coloring page, and she peeks out from under it with wide-open eyes. Her eyebrows tilt with worry, and her mouth is open in a wavy line. One hand grips the edge of the blanket and the other holds a flashlight, while a stuffed bunny with a bow tie sits beside her. A headboard with a heart and two round bedposts frames the bed. It is an easy page for ages 4 to 8.

How this coloring page was created

For this page, we typed this idea into Colorin AI: "a scared little girl peeking out from under her blanket in bed, holding a flashlight, with wide worried eyes, and her stuffed bunny beside her pillow, with the whole drawing kept above an empty white margin at the bottom of the page". The flashlight in her hand and the bunny at her side come from that idea.

How to use it

A child therapist can use it to start a talk about bedtime fears, asking what the girl might be hearing and what helps her feel safe. A teacher can pair it with a happy face page in a lesson on naming feelings. At home, a family can color it before bed and point out what helps the girl feel brave, her flashlight and her bunny. To feature a child's own bedtime friend, create a bedtime page with their favorite stuffed animal.
