Coloring tips for this lion printable

Start with the larger body areas of the adult lion and cub before moving to small parts like whiskers, eyes, and paws.
Use one light base color for both lions, then add a slightly darker shade to the mane tuft, tail tip, and around the ears.
If you use broad-tip markers, leave a small white spot in each eye to keep the cartoon faces bright and friendly.
Crayons work well on the open spaces, while coloring pencils can help you stay neat around the curved tail and whiskers.
For a soft family look, keep the parent and cub in similar warm colors and change only small details such as the mane and paw shading.
