Baby Hippo Walking Right with One Tiny Tooth

A chubby baby hippo walks to the right with its head turned toward us, wearing a small smile and showing one tiny tooth poking up from its lower lip. It has two big shiny eyes with round highlights, two dark oval spots on top of its head, and large nostrils on a wide snout. Two small ears stand up, and a short tail with a pointed tip curls out behind. Its round belly and stubby legs have toenails drawn on the feet, so there are lots of simple shapes to fill in. The outlines are thick and the spaces are big, which makes this printable page easy for younger kids. Try gray or soft purple for the body, then use a darker shade for the head spots and a pale pink for the insides of the ears. It also works well for a lesson on animals that live near rivers in Africa.
