Giraffe, Bear, Bunny and Elephant on a Countryside Bus Ride
Coloring guide
A giraffe sticks its long spotted neck up through a hole in the roof of a cheerful little bus, and a bear cub, a bunny, and a smiling elephant look out of the side windows. The bus bumps along a dirt path on round wheels, with a grille and big headlights that are easy shapes for small hands. In the background there's a waterfall tumbling over rocks, a big leafy tree, a calm lake, rolling mountains, puffy clouds, and a sun with rays. Flowers, a butterfly, tall grass, and a little bird on a rock sit in the front corner. Warm orange and brown patches on the giraffe look nice, with soft greens and blues for the scenery. This free printable suits a quiet afternoon or a classroom activity about animals. Looking for more? Our Monster Trucks and Cars coloring pages pair nicely with this Bus page.
