Giraffe Under the Sun

Sunshine warms this cheerful scene: a happy giraffe stands tall on a grassy plain while a round smiling sun and a few fluffy clouds float in the sky above. Tufts of grass and a small bush dot the ground at its feet. Everything here is simple and bold, which makes it a perfect first coloring page for toddlers and preschoolers, lots of big open shapes and very little fussy detail. The friendly sun gives kids a chance to play with bright yellows and oranges, while the giraffe invites the classic tan-and-brown patchwork. Giraffes love the warm African plains, where the tall grass and scattered trees give them food and shade, and a bright day like this is when they roam and graze most happily. Let your colorer make the sky any color of the rainbow and add as many fluffy clouds as they like. Print this happy picture on US Letter or A4 paper and bring on the sunshine.
