Coloring order

Instead of leaving the polar bear plain white, color it with a very pale sky blue to give it a soft, snowy look.
Use dark colors for the pink pads on the waving paw, the eyes and the black nose so they stand out.
Finish by lightly adding pale blue to the toes of the standing feet and the little fur lines.

Questions to talk about

The polar bear stands up and raises a paw. Who is it calling?
What colors might the polar bear's home be full of?
Have you ever touched snow or ice? What did it feel like?

Take it further

Tear blue, light blue and white paper into pieces and glue them down as an icy floor, then stand the polar bear picture on top.

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.

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.
