Axolotl and Tiny Fish
A smiling axolotl swims past a few friendly little fish, with waving water plants and rising bubbles behind it on this underwater coloring page.
Glide along with this cheerful axolotl as it swims through the water beside a few small, friendly fish. Wavy plants sway in the background and tiny bubbles float upward, giving young colorists plenty of shapes to fill in. The axolotl's body and the round fish are drawn with big, open outlines that suit toddlers and preschoolers, while the trailing plants and scattered bubbles add gentle detail for older kids who want more to color. Axolotls are a kind of salamander that lives entirely in water and breathes through the feathery gills around its head, so it makes a great swimming buddy for fish. Talk about who lives in a pond while you pick your colors. Print this page on US Letter or A4 paper and color the whole scene any way you like.
Coloring Tips
- Cool water palette — blues and greens behind the animals make the fish and axolotl pop forward.
- Leave the bubbles white — color around each circle so they look round and shiny against the water.
- Match or mix the fish — give each little fish its own bright color, or make them a matching school.
