Banana-Loving Monkey in a Striped Hat, Cute Sitting Pose

A happy little monkey sits with its legs stretched out in front, holding a peeled banana in both hands. It has big round eyes with shiny highlights, two small nostrils, and a wide smile. A round striped hat or wrap sits on its head, with a long flap of cloth hanging down beside one big ear. The curly tail swings up behind the monkey and ends in a few pointed tufts. Large feet fill the bottom of the page, and the toes are easy to see. The shapes are big and the lines are bold, so younger kids can color it without much trouble. Try brown for the fur, yellow for the banana, and a bright mix of colors on the hat sections. It also works well for a quick talk about animals and the foods they eat. You can print it for free at home or in the classroom.
