How to color Chubby Cat on a Cushion by number
Start with number 1 (Sand). It has the most areas on this page, 22 of 41, so the picture takes shape quickly. This is an Easy page: the areas are large, so crayons and thick markers work well, and a young child can finish it in one sitting.
Suggested order
- 1 Sand: 22 areas
- 3 Lavender: 6 areas
- 4 Lemon: 5 areas
- 5 Mint: 4 areas
- 2 Blush: 3 areas
- 6 Charcoal: 1 area
Tips for this picture
- Number 1 (Sand) is the cat itself and covers most of the areas on the page. Do it in one go and the rest of the page is only small accents.
- The cushion is number 2 and its tassels use three different numbers. Check the tassels one by one: they are the easiest place to tap the wrong number.
- Charcoal (6) appears once, on the nose. Save it for last.
- On paper, color the light shades first (4 (Lemon) and 1 (Sand)) and the darkest, 6 (Charcoal), last. Dark pencil smudges into light areas if you do it the other way round.
- Online, choose a number and press Find to jump to the next area with that number. A wrong tap does nothing, so you cannot spoil the page.
