Little Turtle Gliding Along With Five Bubbles
Coloring guide
This cheerful baby sea turtle swims along with its head turned our way, showing off one big round eye and a sweet smile. The domed shell is split into large hexagon-style sections with a banded rim, and each of the four flippers has oval spots. You'll also spot a few small dots on the head and cheeks. Five bubbles in different sizes drift nearby: three over the turtle's head and two under the front flipper. Nothing else is in the background, so the turtle and bubbles pop right off the page. The wide shell panels and chunky flippers are easy for small hands. Green works nicely for the shell sections, a lighter yellow-green for the head and flippers, and pale blue for the bubbles.
