Cat With Long Curled Tail and 18 Dots

A smiling cat sits upright with its face turned toward us, drawn with a small triangle nose, a tiny open mouth with a little tongue, curved eyes with lashes, and long whiskers sweeping out on both sides. Eighteen numbered dots surround the head and body, and only the line from 1 to 18 has been drawn so far. The rest is left for kids to connect, which will outline the ears, cheeks, shoulders, and sides of the body. Three long lines mark the front legs, and a fluffy tail curls around the bottom of the page. Counting from 1 to 18 gives early learners good number order practice. Once the dots are joined, try coloring the cat in orange stripes or soft gray, then use a different shade for the tail so its curve really stands out.
