Tortoise Checkup with a Magnifying Glass, Wild Kratts Style

Coloring guide
Crouching down in a wide-brimmed safari hat, a smiling boy studies a big tortoise through a magnifying glass, and the tortoise looks back with a friendly grin. The domed shell is made of large, bold panels that are easy to color, and the legs have a dotted, scaly texture for extra detail. At the lower left, a small backpack with a buckle sits on the ground with a couple of rocks, a few grass tufts and two flowers with round centers along the bottom. It's a nice pick for kids who love nature and animals, and the large shapes suit younger children with chunky crayons. Greens and browns work well on the shell, tan or khaki on the hat, and bright yellow or pink on the flowers. Save the free PDF for a screen-free activity at home.
