About This Coloring Page

The goldfish is the one in the round bowl on the windowsill, and the page is that bowl seen up close: one big round fishbowl with a smiling goldfish swimming across it, a long flowing tail and fins, wavy water lines behind it, a few bubbles rising to the top and one water plant growing up from the bottom.

The bowl is one giant circle, the biggest shape on any page here, and the fish inside is a simple rounded body for a toddler to fill. The wavy lines are the tracing part, the bubbles are little circles to dot in, and the tail has long lines to follow for whoever wants the careful bit.

Ask what the goldfish sees from inside its bowl and how many bubbles are going up. Then make a fish face together, and the page becomes the quiet pet a child checks on every morning.

How to Use This Coloring Page

  1. Fill the fish first. The round body and the long tail, one colour, so it stands out inside the bowl.
  2. Wave the water lines. Follow each wavy line across the bowl with a finger, then with a crayon.
  3. Bubbles, plant and bowl last. Dot in each bubble, colour the plant, then the water around everything. Ask what the fish is called.
