About this coloring page

This coloring page features a cute, chubby cartoon kitten sitting down. The kitten has large, round eyes, a tiny nose, small whiskers, and a happy expression. It is holding a big ball of wound yarn with its front paws. A loose strand of yarn loops around the bottom of the kitten and the ball.\n\nWith its thick black outlines and large, simple spaces, this page is perfect for young children. Toddlers and preschoolers can easily color inside the wide sections of the kitten's body and the stripes of the yarn ball without feeling overwhelmed.\n\nWhile coloring, you can talk about why cats love to play with round objects like balls of yarn. You can also discuss how people use wool yarn to knit warm winter clothing like sweaters, hats, and soft mittens.

Activity ideas

Learn while you color

  • Cats can turn their ears to listen to sounds coming from different directions.
  • Almost all calico cats are female, because the colors are linked to the X chromosome.
  • A group of kittens born together is called a litter.

Coloring tips for this page

  • Use chunky crayons or thick markers: the big shapes are made for them.
  • Pink inside the ears and on the nose makes any cat look softer.
  • Add a colored background (a sunny window, a cushion, a garden) so the cat stands out.
  • Copy a real cat: look at a photo of your own cat or a friend's and match the colors.
