Baby Sea Turtle Paddling Through Ocean Waves
Coloring guide
With big sparkly eyes and a wide smile, a happy baby sea turtle glides diagonally across the page, flippers stretched out like it's paddling. Its shell is made of large sections, and the head and flippers are covered in little spots and pebble patterns, so there's lots to color. Rows of curly waves fill the page around it, along with foamy splashes, tiny bubbles, scallop shells and spiral shells, and starfish in the corners. Kids who love detail can take their time on the wave lines, while younger ones can start with the big shell. Soft greens for the turtle and a mix of blues and teals for the water will help the little critter stand out. Print this free page when you need a quiet, creative moment. Add this to your Ocean coloring page collection, alongside Forest and Solar System & Space.
