Top 10 Little Red Riding Hood Coloring Pages your Little Ones Will Love To Color

“Who is hiding out there in the wood? A sweet little girl and a big, bad wolf”

Little Red Riding Hood, also known as the “Little Red Cap” is a European fairy tale that revolves around a young girl and a big, bad wolf. The earliest version of this story was recorded in the 10th century in France. The story was then told from person to person, thereby entering many other cultures and countries.

The motive of this fairy tale is to offer a couple of valuable warnings. It teaches children to not venture outside alone. Always take along an older sibling or a parent. It also teaches children to stay cautious of strangers. Because like the wolf, you never know who the stranger might turn out to be.
