Like many children, my daughter loves sloths. She loves watching an episode of Planet Earth II with a pygmy sloth swimming in the water. If you’ve never seen a swimming sloth, a short clip from the episode is available for free from the BBC YouTube channel:

According to my daughter’s DK book on sloths, sloth are much faster in water than on land. Their long arms make them good swimmers! I’m always amazed by the new things I learn from my daughter’s nature books.

Slightly older children (8-10 years) will love this photo-packed Scholastic book about sloths. This book has lots of information to satisfy your child’s curiosity about these popular, slow-moving creatures.

How to print and use coloring pages for kids

Printing and using these coloring pages is pretty straightforward – print them off and hand them over to your child.

I recommend printing the coloring pages on 32 lb bright white paper. Remember those yellow, rough coloring pages in coloring books as a child? They’re not that fun to color on. This 32 lb paper is smooth and bright for vibrant colors and easy coloring.

The benefit for you is that the thicker paper doesn’t bleed through as quickly so markers are less likely to stain your table again.

My daughter’s favorite markers for coloring are Crayola Supertips.  They’re affordable and fun for both adults and children. They’re fairly washable, available in a wide variety of colors, and you can even use them for hand lettering practice! They can color fine detail and make broad strokes, too.

My daughter’s favorite crayons are Honeysticks natural beeswax crayons. The colors palette is fairly limited, but the colors are rich and creamy.

These crayons are made in New Zealand from pure beeswax with food grade colorants. If your child is still taste testing their crayons, this brings a lot of peace of mind.
