Sitting Fox Coloring Page

Fox coloring page2 levels

The tail is the biggest part of this fox, swept all the way around in front of its paws and ending in a separate tip shape at the lower left. The fox sits facing forward. Its ears are tall and pointed with inner shapes, a pale cheek band dips down to a black nose and the eyes already have dark pupils. A slim body holds an oval chest patch above two little paws.

With 14 spaces at both levels, the pages differ only in their lines: bold on the easy page for ages 3 to 5, lighter on the standard page for ages 6 to 8. For a red fox, try orange fur, white for the cheeks, chest and tail tip, and dark brown for the paws. The tail tip and the paws sit low on the page, so set the PDF to 100 percent rather than fit to page.

Frequently asked questions

Which version suits a four-year-old?

The easy version. Its outlines are heavy, so a crayon that drifts a little still looks tidy. Children of six and older usually prefer the standard version with thinner lines.

Where does the tail end?

In its own tip shape at the lower left, in front of the paws. That tip is a separate space, so it can be white while the rest of the tail is orange.

Which parts are usually left white?

On a red fox, the cheeks, the oval on the chest and the end of the tail are white, while the ears, head, body and tail are orange.
