Areas to color: about 45

Coloring order

Paint the body stripes in black, beginning with the widest ones and working one stripe at a time. Leave the white stripes bare.
Continue the black stripes into the upright mane and down the lifted leg.
Finish with the gray muzzle and hooves, the pink inside the ear, and the tuft at the end of the tail.

Questions to talk about

How do the stripes run from the zebra's neck all the way to its tail?
In a herd of striped zebras, how would you find your friend?
Have you ever hopped around because you were so excited? When was it?

Take it further

Glue black paper strips onto white paper with different gaps to make your own zebra pattern, then compare it with a friend's.

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.
