Cute Lion Leo's Squeaky Roar Coloring Pages

Coloring page story

Leo the lion cub sat on a sunny-warm rock. He took a deep breath to practice his roar. But instead of a big ROAR!, out came a tiny, little squeak!. The monkeys giggled. Leo’s ears drooped.

His papa said, “A big roar is for big jobs, little one.” Leo just felt small. He saw a beautiful butterfly with paper-thin wings, fast asleep on a flower. He wanted to say hello. He remembered his big papa’s roar and how it shook the leaves. That would scare the butterfly!

So, Leo took a tiny breath. He let out his softest, gentlest squeak!. The butterfly’s wings wiggled. It woke up and fluttered onto Leo’s nose, tickling him.

Twist: Leo learned his squeaky roar wasn't a mistake; it was a "hello" for new, tiny friends. Life Lesson: Your own special way of doing things is a superpower. Interactive Element: Can you make a big roar? Now, can you make a tiny, gentle squeak just like Leo’s?

Coloring Page Printing Tips

For the best coloring experience with this cute lion page, print on medium to heavy cardstock to prevent markers from bleeding through. Use your printer's 'black and white' or 'grayscale' setting on the highest quality to ensure the outline strokes are crisp and clear for little eyes to see.

Recommended Tools

Chunky crayons are perfect for little hands to grip and provide great coverage in the large coloring areas. Washable markers are also a fun choice for vibrant colors. Always supervise young children with art supplies, and choose non-toxic options. These tools work wonderfully with the simple outline-only design.
