Cartoon Dolphin Arching in a Big Jump

Cartoon Dolphin Arching in a Big Jump coloring sheet

Coloring guide

A cheerful cartoon dolphin arches its body in a big jump, with its tail curled down and to the right. It has a large round eye with a shiny highlight, a short rounded snout, and an open smiling mouth with a few little teeth showing. One flipper hangs down near its belly, a tall pointed fin rises from its back, and a small lower fin sits under its chin. A thin curved line runs along the belly and tail, and the tail ends in two wide flukes. The outlines are thick and the shapes are large and simple, so this one works well for younger kids with chunky crayons. Try soft blues and grays on the body, then leave the belly line area a lighter shade so the dolphin looks like it has a pale underside. It's a nice page to print for an ocean unit, and kids can talk about how dolphins jump out of the water.
