Folk Art Elephant Trumpeting With Flowers and Stars

A single elephant stands in side view with its trunk curled up high and its mouth open. Its body is covered in bold folk-art style patterns. The head has a large flower with a square center, a round scalloped flower, small stars, dots and black triangles. A striped circular shape sits on the side of the body, with a spiral, a small oval flower and a curling line nearby. The belly area is filled with black diamonds and triangles, and the legs have leaf-like chevron lines and small scalloped edges at the feet. The ear has a half-circle design, and a zigzag band runs along the trunk. Try giving each pattern its own color so the flowers, diamonds and stripes stand out. It is also a nice way to talk about shapes with younger kids. This printable page has plenty of small spaces, so fine-tip markers or colored pencils work well.
