Grazing Sheep Nibbling Grass Among Flowers
Coloring guide
Here's a sweet, simple scene of a curly little sheep with its head lowered, munching on a tuft of grass. It has big floppy ears, round eyes looking down and a small smile while it eats. The body is built from puffy, cloud-like curls, with a fluffy tail at the back and neat hooves on the ground. You'll spot several grass clumps, a couple of tiny stray blades and three flowers, each with a round center and five petals. Thick outlines and roomy shapes make this free printable comfortable for preschoolers and early elementary kids. Cream or light gray works well for the curls, pink for the ears and nose, and yellow, purple or red flowers will stand out against green grass. This fits right in with our Sheep coloring pages — see also Penguin and Finding Nemo.
