Playful Simba Cub Crouching with Paw Raised

A young lion cub crouches low with his front end pressed down and his back end raised, as if he is about to pounce. One front paw is stretched out near his face, and his big round eyes look off to the side with a curious expression. He has a small smile, whiskers on both cheeks, a tuft of hair on top of his head, and rounded ears with dark inner shading. His long tail curves up and over his back and ends in a fluffy tuft. The lines are bold and the shapes are large, so this free printable works well for younger kids who are still building control. Try golden tan for the body, a warm brown for the head tuft and tail tip, and a lighter shade on the muzzle and paw pads. You could also ask kids to act out the pounce pose.
