Coloring page Smiling Elephant with Raised Trunk

A smiling elephant stands on the ground with its trunk raised high. It has large, rounded ears and a wide-open mouth showing its tongue. On its head, there’s a small tuft of hair and a few spots on its forehead. Surrounding it are leaves and bushes, with a simple flower featuring a round center on the side.

At home, you can reach for it in the afternoon when your child wants to calmly finish a drawing at the table. This coloring page helps practice mindfulness as it requires staying within the lines on the ears, legs, and trunk. It’s also a printable for kids where it’s easy to separate colors between the animal and the plants. The picture can be a conversation starter about the elephant’s body parts and their functions. The small tuft of hair on top of the head helps indicate the direction of the character’s top and adds expression. Brown and black suit the tuft of hair, as short, thin strokes will be clear and won’t blend with the rest of the head. Try coloring larger areas with a crayon and refining details with a fine liner.

Color the elephant and plants, then show your family the result.
