Big Plain-Bodied Goldfish Swimming Left With Side-Glancing Eyes

Big Plain-Bodied Goldfish Swimming Left With Side-Glancing Eyes coloring page

Coloring guide

A cheerful cartoon goldfish fills the page, swimming toward the left with a big curved smile and two round eyes that glance to the side. Its plump, rounded body is left wide open with no scales or patterns, so there is lots of room for color. The fins are the detailed part. A tall fin rises from the back, the tail fans out in a curling crescent shape, and two smaller fins sit below the belly, all divided into stripes. There is also a small lower lip line under the smile. No background is drawn, so the fish floats on plain white paper. Try coloring each fin stripe in a different shade of orange, yellow, and red to show how a goldfish gets its glow. Younger kids can use big crayons on the body, while older kids can add their own bubbles or water around it. It is a free printable that works well for pet units or ocean lessons.
