Skipping Cupid Hugging a Giant Bow-Tied Heart

Coloring guide
This curly-haired little cupid is skipping along with one foot kicked up behind him, arms wrapped around a heart nearly as tall as he is. A pretty ribbon bow sits at the top of the heart, with a round knot in the middle and two long tails. He's got a big open-mouthed smile, sparkly eyes, and feathered wings stretched out to each side. A simple cloth wrap covers his diaper, and his chubby hands and bare feet are easy to spot. With no background at all, kids can keep their attention on the character and add whatever they like. Smooth, bold outlines and that large heart make it a good choice for younger kids and Valentine's Day classroom fun. Red or pink would look great on the heart, with a softer contrasting purple on the bow. You can print it for free, and it's worth keeping a few spare copies around.

A suggested order, zone by zone — skip around as you like.
- 1Start with the big heart: fill the whole heart shape with cherry red, leaving the bow area for later.
- 2Color the skin areas next: face, arms, hand, legs and feet in soft peach skin.
- 3Fill the curly hair, including the side and back hair, with golden yellow.
- 4Paint both wings sky blue, starting at the wing base and working toward the tips.
- 5Color the bow in coral pink: both loops, both ribbon tails and the center knot.
