More ways to browse
Stripes are what kids notice first, and each tiger's pattern is its own, like a fingerprint. Real tigers are orange with black stripes and white patches on the face, chest and belly. Some tigers are white with dark stripes, which kids often enjoy coloring as a second version. Tiger pages pair well with Lunar New Year in a Year of the Tiger, or a unit on Asia.
Because the stripes are already drawn, kids only fill in the orange between them. Crayons are forgiving here, and a light touch keeps the black lines visible. For a glowing look, add a little yellow near the face and belly before the orange.
