Monkey Holding a Banana in Its Curled Tail

A cheerful little monkey sits facing forward with a big round head, two large round ears, and a wide smile. It has small dot eyes, an oval nose with a short line below it, and a tuft of hair on top. Its small body rests on two oval feet. The long curling tail swings up beside it and wraps around a peeled banana, so the banana seems to be held up in the air. Short sketchy lines around the head, ears, and tail give the fur a soft, fuzzy look. The face and body have large open areas, which makes this free printable easy for younger kids to color. Try warm browns for the fur and tan for the ears and face, then pick a bright yellow for the banana so it stands out. It could also start a chat about how real monkeys use their tails.
