Crab colouring page
A crab 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.
Crab facts for kids
- Where it lives
- On the sea floor, on shores and among rocks all over the world.
- How big it is
- Some are the size of a pea, and some are wider than a dinner table.
- What it eats
- Almost everything: algae, shellfish, little worms.
- And also
- A crab walks sideways. When its shell gets too small, it sheds it and grows a new one.
What colours to use
Crabs come in red, orange, blue and purple. Colour the claws a little darker than the shell and leave two white dots for the eyes.
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).
