Free to print for personal and classroom use. This coloring page is part of the Giraffe collection, made for ages 5–7 and drawn in a Preppy style.

🎨 How to color it

Color the giraffe buttery yellow with caramel spots, make the big sunglasses sea-glass blue, and give the striped umbrella coral and mint panels beside a red-and-white beach ball. Use chunky crayons or markers for the wide umbrella stripes and beach ball sections, then let your child scribble freely inside the giraffe’s many spot shapes. For a sunny twist, add pale blue lens shine and a soft golden sunset band behind the tiny sailboat.

The story behind this coloring page

Zazzy Shares the Zoom — Every day, Zazzy stretched her neck above the beach umbrellas to count waves: one splash, two splash, three! Read the full story →

Every day, Zazzy stretched her neck above the beach umbrellas to count waves: one splash, two splash, three! She wanted a game loud enough for everyone to play, but the gulls only squawked and the crabs only clicked in the warm, salty sand. Until one day, her sunglasses flashed a bright zigzag from the sun to a tiny sailboat. “Zoom!” Zazzy shouted, and invented the Zoom Game on the spot.

Because of that, she pointed her nose at each sparkle on the water. Because of THAT, the beach ball rollers, shell stackers, and umbrella nappers all chased the flashes with happy thumps and whoops. Finally, Zazzy called, “Last zoom goes to everyone!” and tilted her glasses so one giant gleam danced across the whole beach. Next time you see her shiny lenses, can you guess where the zoom will bounce after one splash, two splash, three?
