Happy Lion Cub Sitting Up in the Grass

This little lion cub sits up straight with both front paws side by side and looks right at you, with big round eyes and a wide, friendly smile. There's a small tuft of hair on its head, fluffy cheeks, whiskers on both sides and two large round ears. Some chest fur peeks out under the chin, and the tail curls up on the right and finishes in a pointed tuft. You'll spot little clumps of grass on the left and right near its feet. Bold outlines and roomy shapes keep things easy for small hands, and the toes on the paws are a nice place for tiny details. Golden yellow works well for the body, with orange or brown for the tail tuft and head fur and a few bright greens for the grass. Print the free PDF for a classroom project or a weekend craft.
