Happy Dolphin Leaping Out of the Water

A cheerful cartoon dolphin arches its body in a curved leap, facing right with its head tilted up. It has a big open smile showing the inside of its mouth, a long rounded snout, and one large eye with eyelashes and a small curved brow above it. You can see the triangular dorsal fin on its back, a side flipper near the middle of the body, a small pointed fin under the chin, and a forked tail at the bottom left. The lines are thick and clean, and there is no background, so the dolphin stands alone on the white page. Kids can use light blue and gray for the body and try a slightly darker shade along the back. The open mouth is a nice spot to practice staying inside small shapes. This free printable works well for ocean unit lessons on marine mammals.
