Tropical Ocean Dolphin in a Flower Lei

Coloring guide
Popping up out of rippling ocean water, a cheerful baby dolphin wears a lei of large blossoms and leaves around its neck and smiles with its mouth wide open. Its head is tilted a little, and its flippers reach out to each side. On the horizon, a small island with two palm trees and rounded bushes sits behind it, with wavy lines across the sea and two puffy clouds above. Big eyes, a smooth body and large flower petals leave lots of roomy spaces, so crayons or markers work well for preschoolers and early elementary kids. Soft blue and gray go nicely on the dolphin, pink and yellow on the flowers, and bright green on the palm fronds for a sunny tropical feel. Print this sheet at home, no sign-up needed.
