About reindeer
- Reindeer are the only deer species in the world where both males and females naturally grow antlers.
- The footpads of reindeer shrink and tighten during the winter months to give them better grip on slippery ice and snow.
- Reindeer have specialized eyes that change from gold in the summer to deep blue in the winter to help them see in Arctic darkness.
Frequently Asked Questions
What coloring supplies are needed for this page?
Your child will need nine colors: light sky blue, red, light blue, brown, light orange, dark brown, gold, green, and dark grey. Standard crayons, colored pencils, or washable markers will work wonderfully.
How can I help a younger child who cannot read color names yet?
You can color a small sample dot next to each number in the key so your child can match numbers and colors visually. Guiding them through the first few steps will quickly build their confidence.
What type of paper works best for printing this coloring sheet?
Regular white printer paper works well for crayons and colored pencils. If your child prefers wet media like juicy markers or paint sticks, printing on medium cardstock helps prevent colors from soaking through.
