Sleepy Bear in a Cave

Quiet and cozy, this sleepy bear curls up asleep inside a rocky cave den, eyes closed with a peaceful smile and paws tucked under its chin, while a few fallen leaves rest at the cave entrance and a crescent moon glows outside. The calm, restful mood makes it a lovely page for winding down, perhaps at bedtime, and there is plenty to color: the bear, the rocky walls, the leaves, and the night sky beyond. Younger kids can fill the round sleeping bear while older ones shade the rocky cave and the moonlit sky. Bears really do sleep deeply through the cold months in a kind of hibernation, living off the fat they stored up in autumn. Print it on US Letter or A4 and color this peaceful den in warm, sleepy shades.
