Ballerina Bear Twirling on a Stage
Coloring guide
This little bear is up on one pointed foot in ballet slippers, smiling away. One arm reaches out to the side and the other goes high overhead, like she's caught mid-twirl. She has a bow on her head, a sleeveless leotard with a wide waistband, and a scalloped tutu full of curvy lines. Tied-back curtains frame both sides of the stage, and the floor is wooden planks drawn in perspective. Preschoolers will do fine with the big shapes, and older kids can shade the tutu and curtain folds. Pink for the tutu and bow, red curtains and golden brown fur would look lovely. Print it free for a dance-class party, a rainy afternoon or a quiet corner of the classroom. If you enjoyed this Bear page, don't miss our Shark and Giraffe coloring pages.
