Poppy Wreath Coloring Pages
Welcome to my Poppy Wreath coloring pages section.
On Remembrance Day people lay wreaths of red poppies at war memorials. A wreath is a circle with no beginning and no end, which is why it's such a fitting way to say that those who served won't be forgotten.

About Poppy Wreaths:
Wreaths have been a way to honour people since ancient Greece, where winners of races and contests wore crowns of laurel leaves. Memorial wreaths keep that idea of honour, and the red poppy adds the story of the battlefields of Flanders.
Every year in Canada, a Silver Cross Mother lays a wreath at the National War Memorial in Ottawa. She lays it on behalf of all the mothers who have lost a child in service.
