Safari Animal Coloring Pages

Gullu's Safari land takes kids on an African savanna adventure with 24 coloring pages of wild animals and explorer gear. They suit toddlers through the early grades. Easy pages like the meerkat, roaring lion cub, flamingo and hiding ostrich have big, simple shapes for little ones, while older kids can take on detailed pictures such as the spotted cheetah, the striped zebra foal or the giant tortoise with its patterned shell. You will also meet a rhino with a bird on its back, a warthog, a laughing hyena, a buffalo with curved horns, a leopard cub in a tree and an elephant family walking trunk to tail. For the trip itself there is a safari truck, a safari van, a safari hat and binoculars. Each page has a short true fact. Giraffe and Acacia Tree is free to print here; the others are colored in the Gullu app.

What kids practice

Safari pages help kids practice fine motor control on spots, stripes and shell patterns, from big easy bodies to tiny details. Children learn the names of African animals and words like savanna, herd, tusk and matriarch. The facts teach real science, such as why zebra stripes are unique, and counting spots or animals in a herd adds simple math to the fun.

Ideas for home and the classroom

  • Set up a pretend safari: hide colored copies of the free Giraffe and Acacia Tree page around the room and let kids find them with paper-tube binoculars.
  • Sort the animals kids have colored into groups such as spots, stripes and plain coats, or animals with horns and without.
  • Make a savanna mural with a yellow grass background, glue on the colored giraffes and draw more animals around them.
FAQ

Safari Animal Coloring Pages: questions

What are easy safari animal coloring pages for toddlers?

The meerkat, roaring lion cub, flamingo and hiding ostrich have the biggest shapes and fewest small parts, which makes them great for toddlers. The baby hippo and warthog are a good next step. Older kids who enjoy detail can try the cheetah, zebra foal or safari van.

Can I print these safari coloring pages for school or a party?

Giraffe and Acacia Tree is free to print for personal and classroom use, including animal units, safari parties and library programs. The other safari pages are colored in the Gullu app. Please do not sell the page or include it in products for resale. It includes a true fact you can read aloud as kids color.

Which animals live on an African safari?

Safari animals in this set include giraffes, rhinos, cheetahs, zebras, elephants, lions, leopards, hippos, buffalo, hyenas, meerkats, warthogs, gazelles, ostriches, vultures and crocodiles. Many of them live on the savanna, a wide grassland with scattered trees. The giant tortoise lives on islands instead, so it makes a nice talking point about different homes.
