Activity guide for this page

Recommended age: Ages 4–7
Estimated time: 10–20 min
Difficulty: Easy
Areas to color: about 10

Coloring order

Start with the fox's round sitting body, the top of the face and the pointed ears in a bright orange.
Color the white fur on the lower face and chest, then the black parts on the ear tips and lower legs, one patch at a time.
Fill the big bushy tail curling around the front with orange, and leave its white tip uncolored to finish.

Questions to talk about

The fox is smiling with narrowed eyes. What trick might it be planning?
If you had a tail like a fox, what color would you choose?
Have you ever played hide-and-seek? Where did you hide?

Take it further

Cut a long tail from orange paper, glue a cotton ball on the tip, and play fox by waving your tail around.

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.
