Cute Horse and Butterfly Coloring Page

About this page

A friendly cartoon horse stands in the middle of a flower meadow with its head turned toward a butterfly floating at the upper right. The big, round eye and smiling mouth give it a gentle face, and a mane falls down one side of the neck while the tail curls out on the left. Large, simple flowers with round middles and big petals fill the foreground, some standing at the left and right and some at the bottom center, with grass tufts between them. Bushes sit behind the horse, and puffy clouds float at the top left and right. The butterfly has patterned wings and a thin body. The shapes are rounded and the spaces are comfortably big, so it is easy to color within the lines. This is a happy medium-detail page for kids who like animals and flowers.
