Cuddly Bear Cub Hugging a Honey Pot
Coloring guide
A cheerful bear cub sits on the ground, round paw-pad feet facing you, with a big striped honey pot squeezed against its tummy. Honey drips down the pot and over the rim. The open-mouthed smile, sparkly eyes and fluffy fur tufts make the cub look playful. Only a few grass tufts sit along the bottom, so the page stays simple. Bold outlines and roomy spaces suit little hands, which makes this a good free printable for preschool and early elementary. Golden yellow and amber would suit the honey and pot stripes, with warm brown fur and soft pink for the inner ears and paw pads.

- 3Color the middle and upper bands of the honey pot with amber orange, then add the golden yellow drip running down the front.
- 4Paint the muzzle with pale cream and the tongue with rose pink, then fill the foot pads and ear insides with light pink.
