Tiana Puts On Her Crown coloring page

About this coloring page

Tiana crowning herself might look like every princess's dream, but what Tiana really wanted was not a castle. It was a restaurant. In The Princess and the Frog, she is a young waitress in New Orleans who works double shifts to save every penny she can.

Her father, James, was a wonderful cook who taught her that good food brings people together. The two of them dreamed of opening their own place, and Tiana holds on to that dream after he is gone. One of her signature dishes is gumbo, a hearty Louisiana stew made with rice, vegetables and seafood or meat.

Unlike many princesses, Tiana does not wait around for magic to fix things. When she sees a wishing star, she reminds herself that wishes only come true with hard work. Over the course of the story, though, she also learns to slow down, have some fun and make room for love.

By the end of the movie Tiana gets both. She marries Prince Naveen and opens her restaurant, Tiana's Place. Her crown is a reward that comes along with her goals, not instead of them.
