Catch this cheerful dolphin mid-leap as it arches gracefully above the water. It has a sleek curved body, a smiling beak and friendly eye, a tall dorsal fin, and splashing water droplets with a couple of gentle waves rolling below. The smooth, flowing body is simple enough for younger children to color in one or two shades, while the splashes and waves invite older kids to add movement and sparkle. Dolphins are clever and playful ocean mammals that breathe air, leap for fun, and talk to each other with clicks and whistles. They often surf the waves beside boats just to play. Classic grey-blue suits the dolphin, with pale blue water below and white foam on the splashing droplets. Print it on US Letter or A4 and let this happy, energetic leaper bring a real splash of motion to your coloring page.

Coloring Tips

  • Smooth body — use long strokes in grey-blue to keep the dolphin's sleek shape looking fast.
  • White the splashes — leave the droplets and foam mostly white so the leap looks full of motion.
  • Lighten the waves — color the waves below in pale blue so the dolphin stands out above them.

Frequently asked questions

Why is the dolphin jumping?
Dolphins really do leap above the water to play, travel faster, and look around — this page captures that joyful jump.
Are dolphins fish?
No. Dolphins are mammals that breathe air at the surface, just like whales, even though they live in the sea.
