Koi Fish and Lotus Pond Page for Chinese New Year

Here's a cheerful koi with big round eyes, a wide smile and two long whiskers, swimming diagonally toward you through a pond. Wavy, cloud-like patches dot its body, and the large flowing tail and fins have simple lines that are easy to color. One lotus flower sits on a lily pad in the top left, and another in the bottom right. Ripple lines circle the fish and both flowers. Because the shapes are big and clear, this free printable fits preschoolers and early elementary kids building pencil control. Orange patches on the koi look great with the rest of the body left white or pale yellow. Add soft pink lotus petals and light blue ripples for a nice contrast.
