Animals Having Fun coloring pages for 5 year olds
29 animals having fun coloring pages pitched at 5 year olds, free to print with no account and no watermark. Most are straightforward, with four that step up for a child who is ready for more.
Animals doing everyday and slightly silly things, rather than sitting or standing still.
They assume a child who writes most uppercase and many lowercase letters, which is typical at five. If that is not there yet, the age 4 sheets are the better place to start.
Sheets in this set include Elephant Riding a Tricycle Coloring Page, Duck Holding an Umbrella Coloring Page and Elephant Taking a Shower Coloring Page. Each is one page on A4, laid out with margins wide enough that nothing is lost printing on US Letter.
Sessions of ten to fifteen minutes work better than one long sitting. Plain printer paper is fine for crayons; put scrap paper underneath if markers bleed through.
