Baby Animal Coloring Pages

The Baby Animals land in Gullu has 20 coloring pages of sweet, smiling young animals from farms, forests, oceans and faraway places. They suit toddlers through the early grades. Little ones can begin with easy pages like the duckling, puppy, piglet, hatching chick, otter pup or honey pot cub, while slightly older kids can enjoy more detail, such as the woolly lamb with a bell, the spotted calf, the leaping baby goat or the baby bunny holding a flower. You will also meet a spotted fawn, a long-legged foal, a fluffy owlet and a baby hedgehog. From around the world come a joey in its mother's pouch, a baby koala, a baby panda, an elephant calf and a penguin chick with its parent. Each page shares a true fact about the real animal. Kitten and Butterfly is the free printable here, and the rest are colored in the Gullu app.

What kids practice

Baby animal pages help kids practice fine motor skills on soft, rounded shapes that are gentle for beginners. Children learn the special names for young animals, such as kid, foal, fawn, joey, owlet and hoglet, and match each baby to its grown-up. Counting spots and legs adds early math, and the facts teach real-world science about how young animals grow and are cared for.

Ideas for home and the classroom

Play a matching game: color each baby animal, then draw or find a picture of its grown-up parent.
Make a word wall of baby animal names, like kitten, calf, foal, kid and joey, with the printed Kitten and Butterfly page as the first picture.
Talk through the baby animals kids have colored and sort them by where they live: farm, forest, water or far-off lands.
