Coloring order

Color the standing body and round head in brown and a darker brown, with a slightly lighter shade on the belly fur.
Fill the flat tail behind it one grid square at a time in gray, and the big front teeth in cream.
Finish with a light brown for the long stick in its paws, and a gentle touch on the small lines at its feet.

Questions to talk about

What shape is the beaver's tail, and what does it remind you of?
What do you think the beaver wants to build with that stick?
Have you ever built something with blocks or boxes?

Take it further

Roll newspaper into thin sticks, then stack and weave them like a beaver to build a little house or fence.

Age and time are rough guides for a child coloring alone with pencils or crayons; every child is different. The area count is an estimate counted from the line-art image.

About this image

The black-and-white line art you print and color. Closed shapes and bold outlines make it easy to fill.

Printing and coloring tips

Print on A4 or Letter in portrait to keep the original proportions.
Keep the finished version open beside you while you color.
Use slightly heavier paper with water-based markers so the ink shows through less.
Fill the large areas first and leave the small ones for later.
The finished version is only a suggestion. Any colors you like will work.
