About these cute animal coloring pages

What ties these pages together is that the animals behave like small children with hobbies. Kittens, puppies, foxes, owls, parrots, axolotls, crocodiles and horses all have round heads, big shiny eyes and a smile, and almost every one is in the middle of an activity. Some are in the kitchen: an axolotl and a crocodile in chef hats, a puppy cutting bone-shaped cookies, a fox laying out leaf cookies. Some make music on a drum, violin, guitar, xylophone or tambourine. Others read picture books, pour tea, paint at an easel, garden with a trowel or head out in rain boots and umbrellas. Horses are the exception and mostly stand in meadows, by a barn or under a flower arch. The props bring patterns of their own, like polka-dot cushions, a patchwork quilt, checkered blankets and striped scarves, so there is more to fill than on an easy page while the spaces stay roomy enough for markers.

Coloring tips

  • Color the prop before the animal: once the teapot, drum or umbrella has a bright color, choose a softer one for the fur or feathers around it.
  • Cute animals do not need real colors. A lavender owl or a mint crocodile is fine, but keep the eyes dark with a white shine dot so the face still reads.
  • Patterned cushions, quilts and scarves are easier if you pick two colors and alternate them square by square or stripe by stripe.
  • For a pink axolotl, leave the face pale and put the strongest pink on the feathery gills, which is how the pet ones look.
