The Story Behind the Daisy

Did you know the word daisy comes from “day’s eye”? These flowers open with the sunrise and close at night, almost like they’re blinking with the rhythm of the day. In Norse mythology, daisies were sacred to Freya, the goddess of love and fertility. In modern times, they’re the birth flower of April, a symbol of new beginnings.

Adding these little stories alongside coloring makes the activity richer — children aren’t just filling petals with yellow and white, they’re connecting with history, language, and culture.

What You’ll Find in Daisy Coloring Pages

Instead of lumping daisies into categories, think of them as moods:

  • Playful Daisies: cartoon faces, smiling petals, and easy outlines for preschoolers.
  • Wild Daisies: meadow scenes with bees, butterflies, and ladybugs.
  • Celebration Daisies: bouquets tied with ribbons, perfect for birthdays or Mother’s Day.
  • Mindful Daisies: mandala‑style patterns and realistic sketches for older kids and adults.

This way, parents can pick a page that matches the moment — whether it’s a quick rainy‑day activity or a detailed art project.

Learning Through Coloring

Coloring daisies can spark curiosity in surprising ways:

  • Science: Children can label petals, stems, and leaves, or compare daisies to their cousins like chamomile and sunflowers.
  • Art: Daisies are usually white, but why not try rainbow petals, ombre shading, or even a galaxy daisy?
  • Mindfulness: The repetition of petals makes daisies perfect for calming, meditative coloring.

Creative Uses Beyond Coloring

Finished pages don’t have to stay in a folder. Here are daisy‑specific ideas:

  • Daisy Chains: Cut out colored daisies and link them into paper garlands for parties or classroom walls.
  • April Birthday Cards: Since daisies are April’s flower, they make thoughtful handmade cards for spring birthdays.
  • Nature Journals: Pair a colored daisy with notes about where real daisies grow, or press a real daisy next to the drawing.
  • Sun Trackers: Use the coloring page to explain how daisies open and close with the sun — kids can color one “day” daisy and one “night” daisy.

Fun Facts to Share While Coloring

  • Daisies grow on every continent except Antarctica.
  • A single daisy head is actually made of two flowers: the white petals are one type, and the yellow center is another.
  • Gerbera daisies come in red, pink, orange, and purple — perfect for experimenting with bold colors.
  • In Victorian times, giving someone a daisy meant “I’ll never tell” — a symbol of secrecy and trust.
