Round Butterfly Mandala with a Little Flower in the Middle

Coloring guide
This design has four happy butterflies arranged in a circle, each with a round smiling face, curly antennae and a striped body. They all point in toward a small five-petal flower at the center. With one at the top, one at the bottom and one on each side, the picture looks the same however you turn it. The wings are made of big and small circles, rounded sections and curved lines, and scalloped shapes behind them fill out the oval outline. A few little dots float near the center flower. Thick, clear lines and roomy spaces work well for little ones with chunky crayons, while older kids can fill the circles with their own patterns. Pink and purple wings on the top and bottom pair, turquoise and lime on the sides, and a bright yellow flower in the middle make a nice combination. It's a free printable, so go ahead and save a few extras. Browse more Mandala coloring pages, or explore Advanced Designs and Christmas Mandala for even more fun.

- 2Fill the large outer wings of all four butterflies with soft purple, leaving the round spots for later.
- 3Color the inner wing shapes with bright orange so they stand out inside the purple wings.
