The music has started playing in the garden, and this little strawberry didn't wait a second before hitting the dance floor! Arms raised, big smile, and little green leaves neatly arranged on top, it's already showing off its best moves. With a naturally red outfit covered in tiny dots, it's hard to imagine a more eye-catching costume for the party!

But those tiny dots on the surface of a strawberry actually hide a fascinating secret. They're often mistaken for seeds, but they're really tiny dry fruits called achenes, each containing a seed. The red, fleshy part we eat develops from the strawberry flower. Strawberries belong to the rose family, just like apples, pears, and even roses.

To see this fruit without arms or dancing shoes, take a look at these delicious strawberries drawn in a more realistic style. Then our little dancer can join another member of the fruity band: the cute dancing blackberry seems to have heard the very same music.

For this coloring page, choose a beautiful strawberry red for the fruit, fresh green for the leaves, and golden yellow or light brown for the achenes. As for the shoes, our little dancer will happily wear the most imaginative colors in your palette. Strawberries, blackberries, and other fruity treats are setting the rhythm among our deliciously colorful Fruit and Vegetable Coloring Pages: the garden party is only just beginning!
