Kitten Sitting on the Bubble Word CAT with a Yarn Ball
Coloring guide
Big bubble letters spell CAT, and a cheerful kitten sits right on top with one paw resting on a large ball of yarn. Look for the round eyes, tiny nose, open smiling mouth, long whiskers and fluffy fur around the cheeks and ears. The tail curls up behind the kitten, and a loose strand of yarn trails down on the left next to the letter C. The yarn ball is covered in curved stripes that are fun to color in. Preschoolers learning to read the word CAT will enjoy this free printable, and the thick outlines are easy for small hands to follow. Rainbow stripes look great on the yarn, and a different color on each letter will stand out against an orange or gray kitten. Looking for more?
