Summer Wardrobe — Bear & Outfits

About this coloring page

This coloring page has the teddy bear boy and a lemon-print shirt with cream shorts, tan overalls with a sun patch, a green striped tee with denim shorts, a red polo with green shorts, a striped bucket hat, a green cap, a canvas bag and round sunglasses — all as black-and-white line art with the white fold-over tabs. It is page 1 of the Summer 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

• A rainy-day summer activity — pack the bear for a picnic or a trip to the lake.
• Felt-tip markers give the brightest colors; put a scrap sheet underneath so they do not bleed through.
• Colored pencils are best for the bear itself: short strokes for the fur, a darker shade for the paws and ears.
