Speed and grace come together as this mermaid swims through the water, her long hair streaming behind her and her arms reaching forward. Her scaled tail is flicked up in motion, trailing bubbles, and a small fish swims along beside her. The strong sense of movement makes this a dynamic, exciting page for kids who love action and adventure. The flowing hair and tail give big areas to fill, while the trailing bubbles and the little fish add lighter detail, so the page suits younger and middle-age colorers. Real mermaid-like swimming, with the body and tail moving up and down together, is the very same motion dolphins and whales use to power through the open sea. Color the hair and tail in long, smooth strokes that follow her swimming direction. Print it on US Letter or A4 and send your mermaid gliding through color.

Coloring Tips

  • Stroke with the swim — color the hair and tail in the direction she is moving to show speed and flow.
  • Trail the bubbles — fill the trailing bubbles in pale blues so they look like a wake behind her.
  • Add a buddy — give the little fish a bright color so it stands out as her swimming companion.

Frequently asked questions

What makes this page feel like she is moving?
The streaming hair, reaching arms, and flicked-up tail all point in the swim direction, and coloring in that direction adds to the motion.
Is this page hard to color?
Not very — the hair and tail are big open shapes, while the bubbles and fish add light detail, so it suits younger and middle-age kids.
