Common questions about this coloring page
For our friendly whale, we recommend shades of grey, blue, or even brown for the body. The belly can be made lighter, perhaps a light grey or cream white. Explain to your child that whales are often not just blue, but have many shades of grey.
Point to the large tail fluke and explain that the whale swims with it. The pectoral fins help with steering. Also mention the blowhole on its head, through which the whale breathes and can spray water. Use simple words and gestures.
Encourage your child to color the water around the whale blue. They can also add small bubbles, simple seaweed, or even tiny fish. Emphasize that the whale is a large inhabitant of the ocean and has many other animals around it.
Talk about how important it is to keep the ocean clean so the whale and its friends can live healthily. Explain that we shouldn't throw trash into the water and how every small contribution helps protect the marine world.
