Cross-Legged Monkey Peeling a Banana with a Bunch in Lap

A cheerful monkey sits with its legs crossed and a big open-mouth smile, peeling a banana and holding the tip up to its mouth. A whole bunch of bananas rests in its lap, and the monkey cradles them with one hand while the other hand holds the peeled fruit. It has large round ears, wide shiny eyes, a tuft of hair swept across its forehead, and a long tail that curls into a spiral on the right side. Small jagged fur marks show at the wrists and ankles, and the bare feet are drawn at the bottom. The outlines are clean and thick, so younger kids can stay inside the lines. Try yellow and light green for the bananas, then pick two shades of brown for the fur and a softer tan for the face, ears, hands, and feet. This free printable also works well for a snack time or jungle animal lesson.
