Sleepy Chameleon Under the Moon with Fireflies
Coloring guide
With closed eyes and a gentle smile, a sleepy chameleon curls up on a thick tree branch, chin resting on its front feet and tail winding into a big spiral. Oval spots run along its body and tail, and a bumpy ridge follows its back. A crescent moon hangs in the night sky among lots of stars in different sizes, and five little fireflies with smiling faces and glowing tails flutter close by. Large leaves frame the edges of the page. It's a calm free printable that suits bedtime or quiet time. Soft greens and teals work for the chameleon, and bright yellow in the fireflies' tails will glow against a deep blue night sky. Kids who like Chameleon coloring pages usually enjoy Crab and Tiger too.
