Colouring PagesCat colouring page
A cat to print on A4 paper or to colour on the screen. Easy
How to use this page
On paper: tap "Print the blank page". Only the picture is printed, with a line for the child's name. On screen: tap a colour, then tap a part of the picture to fill it. "Undo" takes back the last fill, and white rubs a part out. Nothing is saved; the picture is fresh each time you open it.
Colour ideas
Cats come in black, white, grey, ginger (orange) and brown, and often in patches or stripes of two or three colours. Give yours a pink nose and pink inside the ears.
Real colours are only a starting point. Ask the child what colour this animal is today and why; a blue cat with green ears has a story behind it. When the animal is done, add where it lives: grass, water, a branch, a night sky.
