What’s Inside This Collection
Solo Squirt Portraits
All 7 pages show Squirt on his own, swimming with his flippers spread, and one of them carries the name SQUIRT in bold letters at the top.
Line Styles
Six pages use thin outlines with patterns on the shell and spots on the flippers, while one page uses a bold stencil style with heavy black shapes and a few white areas to fill.
Expressions
Every page shows Squirt smiling, and most draw him with large, round eyes that give the character his friendly look.
What Squirt Coloring Pages Do
The American Academy of Pediatrics identifies fine motor skill development as a core benefit of structured coloring for children ages 2 through 7, and the large single-figure pages suit that age range well, while the spotted flippers and shell plates give older children small areas to shade.
A 2005 study in the Art Therapy Journal documented measurable reductions in anxiety following structured coloring sessions, and the smooth, flowing shapes of a swimming turtle give colorists the kind of calm, focused task the study links to a calmer mood.
Squirt is a young green sea turtle and the son of Crush in Pixar’s Finding Nemo, and he returns in the sequel Finding Dory.
How to Color Squirt Pages Well
- Shell: Use two or three greens, from olive to a lighter yellow green, and leave a thin light edge around each shell plate.
- Skin and face: a soft green for the head and a slightly darker shade for the spots on the flippers match the printed pattern.
- Eyes: keep the eye whites clean, color the pupil black, and add a tiny white highlight so the eyes look bright.
- Flippers: short, curved pencil strokes in the direction of the flipper give a smooth, rounded look.
- Ocean: a light blue wash behind the turtle makes it look as if he is gliding through the water.
