Sailor Wardrobe — Bear & Outfits

About this coloring page

This coloring page has the teddy bear boy and a sailor top with a red neckerchief and denim shorts, a striped tee with red shorts and a rope belt, a blue cardigan with khaki shorts, a yellow rain jacket with navy shorts, a captain's hat, binoculars, a life ring and a striped tote — all as black-and-white line art with the white fold-over tabs. It is page 1 of the Sailor Wardrobe; page 2 has six more pieces drawn to the same scale. Color the bear and the outfits, cut along the outlines and the page becomes a teddy bear paper doll.

Printing and coloring tips

Print at 100% on Letter or A4. Plain 80–100 gsm copy paper is fine for crayons and colored pencils; for markers, use thicker paper or put a scrap sheet underneath so the ink doesn't bleed through. Detailed scenes like this one are easier with fine-tip markers or sharpened pencils.

Ideas for this page

• Fold a paper boat and take the bear on a voyage across the kitchen table.
• Try a pattern on one outfit — stripes, polka dots or tiny hearts — and keep another one plain.
• Leave the white tabs uncolored so you can see where to fold them.
