Simba and Nala Cubs Out for a Stroll Together

Two smiling lion cubs stand close together, and they look like young Simba and Nala. The cub in front faces us with an open, happy mouth, whiskers, a small tuft of hair on its forehead and dark rounded insides to its ears. Its front paws are stepping forward and its tail curls up behind it. The second cub peeks over its shoulder with its head tilted and eyes glancing down, with a closed smile and one front paw reaching ahead. Both tails curl upward and end in fluffy tufts. The lines are bold and the spaces are fairly large, so this page works well for younger kids. Try tawny golden tones for the bodies and a deeper brown or black for the ear insides and tail tufts. You could also ask children to color the two cubs in slightly different shades so they can tell them apart.
