Printing and coloring tips

  • Turn a page into a mini lesson. Talk about where the animal lives and what it eats while your child colors.
  • Real colors or wild colors both work. Let your child try a purple elephant or a blue tiger.
  • Color the animal first and the background last, so the animal stays bright and clear.
  • Teachers can print a different animal for each table and swap pages halfway through.

The 5 easy pages, like the elephant, have big shapes and thick lines for ages 3 to 6.
