Crocodile in a Toy Sailboat Coloring Page

About this page

Sailing across a pretend sea, a happy crocodile sits in a small boat and grips the tall mast with one hand. The mast has a round ball on top, and a big triangular sail billows out to the right. The boat is a wide wooden bowl shape with three horizontal bands around its hull. The crocodile's mouth is open in a grin, showing teeth along both jaws, and its snout reaches past the mast. Spots decorate the tail, which stays inside the boat at the left. There are no waves drawn, so you can add water in any style. The large sail and hull are open shapes that give kids plenty of room to color and then personalize the boat with stripes or a flag.
