Treasure Chest Seahorse Surrounded by Jewels

Coloring guide
Next to an open treasure chest in an underwater scene, a friendly seahorse with big round eyes and a curved smile floats upright. The chest is packed with sparkling diamonds, round gems and strings of beads, and a long pearl necklace drapes over the front near the keyhole lock. The seahorse has a ridged crest on its head, two fan-shaped fins, a striped belly and a tail curled into a spiral. Tall wavy seaweed grows on both sides, small bubbles drift upward, and a starfish and a few rocks rest on the sandy seafloor. The lines are bold and clean, which works nicely for crayons and markers. Icy blues and purples would make the diamonds sparkle against a golden chest. The free PDF is handy for classroom time or a rainy day.
