Cozy Sunbeam Kitten Coloring Pages for Ages 3-5

Coloring page story

Sunny was a fluffy white kitten who loved warm places. Her most favourite thing in the world was a sunbeam.

Every afternoon, a golden square of sunshine would appear on the living room rug. It was like a magic, warm blanket just for her. Sunny would pad over, step into the light, and feel the warmth soak into her fur.

She would turn around three times, making the perfect nest. Then she’d curl into a tiny, furry doughnut. Her nose tucked into her tail, she’d listen to the quiet house and feel the sunbeam hugging her. And soon, she would be fast asleep, dreaming of chasing sunbeams.

Coloring page Age Appropriateness

This design is ideal for the 3-5 age group due to its very simple composition and large, uncluttered coloring areas. The main subject, a sleeping kitten, is a single, large enclosed shape, which is easy for small hands to color without frustration, supporting motor skill development.

Coloring Page Coloring Instructions

Look at this sleepy little kitten! She's taking a warm nap. Let's make her picture beautiful. The story says she is a white kitten, but you can make her any color you dream of! Maybe she's a rainbow kitten today? The square around her is a warm sunbeam, so you could use your yellow and orange crayons to make it look sunny and bright. Try your best to stay inside the thick black lines!

Coloring Page Printing Tips

Print on standard A4 or Letter paper. If using watercolors, a heavier paper like watercolor paper is recommended to handle moisture. Ensure your printer settings are not on 'draft' mode to get solid, unbroken black outline strokes.

Recommended Tools

Washable markers will make the sunbeam outline look very bright. Soft pastels or crayons are perfect for giving the kitten's outlined fur a soft, gentle look. Using different tools for the kitten and the sunbeam can create a fun contrast.
