Ratatouille coloring pages are featuring Remy, Alfredo Linguini, Colette Tatou, Skinner, Anton Ego, Auguste Gusteau, Django, Emile and other characters from Disney's Ratatouille animated film. Try to guess, who is who.
Ratatouille is a peculiar tale of a rat with an utterly inconvenient passion for fine French cuisine—a passion about as practical as a fish aspiring to join the air force. Our protagonist, Remy, is cursed (or blessed, depending on whom you ask) with a refined palate that defies his species’ stereotypical penchant for garbage. As fate—or some very questionable plot logic—would have it, Remy ends up in Paris, specifically in the restaurant of the late culinary legend, Chef Gusteau, whose motto, “Anyone can cook,” is about to be taken to its rodent-rattling limits.
For children, this film offers a unique lesson in ambition, namely, that one’s true calling is rarely convenient and often about as likely as a giraffe auditioning for a ballet troupe. Remy is an excellent case study in improbable aspirations, showing young viewers that dreams may not always fit into tidy little categories. After all, he is both a rat and a chef, two roles that traditionally go together about as well as fire and flammable upholstery. Yet Remy’s unrelenting determination offers a delightful absurdity that encourages kids to imagine a world where the phrase “impossible dream” is just a polite suggestion.
And then there’s the food. Through Remy’s delicate artistry with flavors, textures and far too much enthusiasm for fennel, kids learn the joy of experimentation in the kitchen. They might even be inspired to look at a carrot and wonder, “What if I combined this with an old boot?” (Hopefully, they won’t.) Ratatouille serves up a feast of curiosity and a hearty portion of hilarity, making it a deliciously oddball reminder that the best path in life is often the one that makes everyone else scratch their heads.
