Betta colouring page
A betta outline for children aged 3 to 8, with short facts to read together. Colour it in the Live Aquarium app and it turns into a swimming 3D creature.
This sheet is printed from the app: open "From paper" and tap "Printable coloring pages (for grown-ups)". Printing is free. Ten sheets can be printed from this site.
Betta facts for kids
- Where it lives
- In rice fields and warm puddles of Thailand.
- How big it is
- As long as a little finger: about 6 centimetres.
- What it eats
- Mosquito larvae and small insects.
- And also
- It can gulp air from the surface, and the father builds a nest of bubbles.
What colours to use
The betta is famous for its long flowing fins in red, blue, violet or turquoise, often two colours at once. Let the colour change from the body to the tips of the fins.
In the aquarium any colours work: the creature will swim exactly as your child coloured it.
Bring it to life
In the Live Aquarium app the same outline can be coloured on the screen with brushes, fills and stamps, and then it swims in a 3D aquarium, can be fed, petted and named. A printed and coloured sheet can be photographed in the app (with Plus).
