Dancing Baby Elephant With Flowers and Sun
Coloring guide
Up on its hind legs with its front feet lifted like it's dancing, this cheerful baby elephant raises its trunk and grins with an open mouth. Big floppy ears, a small tuft of hair on its head, sparkly eyes with lashes and a tufted tail give it lots of personality. A round sun with short rays shines in the top left corner. At the bottom, two flowers with grass blades stand beside a smaller third flower on the right. Bold lines and large shapes work well for preschoolers and early elementary kids. Sky blue or lavender on the elephant, a yellow sun and pink and orange petals would be pretty. Print the free PDF for a fun afternoon activity. This fits right in with our Elephant coloring pages — see also Wolves and Lion.
