Kitten Playing with Big Yarn Ball, Calico Critters Coloring Page
Coloring guide
One paw rests on a large ball of yarn in this cute scene, and the fluffy kitten has big shiny eyes and a happy open-mouth smile. It sits upright with its front paws showing and its tail curled up behind, with tufts of fur around the cheeks and head. The yarn ball has curved stripes, and a long loose strand trails across the ground, looping into a curl near the bottom. All of it sits on a round rug with a scalloped edge. Small hands will find the wide spaces on the yarn easy, and the fur gives older kids some detail work. Orange with cream paws suits the kitten, and a bright purple or pink yarn will stand out.
