Sleepy Pig Curled Up on Straw

Coloring guide
Curled up on a cozy nest of straw, this sleepy piglet rests its head on a soft pillow with its eyes closed in a peaceful smile. One floppy ear hangs forward over the pillow and the other flops over the top of its head, with a small tuft of hair between them. The round snout has two big nostrils, a curly tail sticks out at the side, and little hooves are tucked in front. Loose bits of straw lie around the edges of the page. Thick, clean outlines and big open areas make this free printable easy for preschoolers and early elementary kids, and the straw lets older kids add detail. Soft pink for the piglet, golden yellow for the straw and a pale blue or lavender pillow will keep the scene calm and snuggly. Fans of Pig coloring pages often like Horses and Cow as well.
