17 Whale Coloring Pages

Whales are mammals that breathe air through blowholes on top of their heads. When a whale surfaces, it blows out warm, moist air that forms the spout you see. The blue whale is the largest animal that has ever lived, even bigger than the largest dinosaurs. This set keeps whales friendly and round. A whale spouts water high, another stands upright with its spout splashing, one swims forward smiling and one rests calmly. A chubby round whale, a plain smiling whale, a baby whale and two cartoon whales are perfect for small artists. For fun, one whale sits on a rock and another snacks on a cookie. Real whales come in many colors: blue whales are blue gray, humpbacks are dark with white flippers, belugas are white and orcas are black and white, though orcas are actually large dolphins. Kids can color the spout in light blue and draw waves around the whale. These pages fit ocean units, beach trips and bath-time fun.
