The little lion cub thinks Dad is the king of the whole savanna. Dad is brave, kind, and always ready to help. Give their fluffy manes and special sign your favorite colors. Their curled tails show just how close they are!
This lion dad and his cub are side by side, with their tails curling close together. Dad’s large mane and the cub’s smaller face show that they are a loving lion family. Their special sign makes the scene feel like a Father’s Day hello. Kids can picture them on the sunny savanna, sharing a quiet moment before an adventure. The cub looks proud to be beside such a caring dad.
Use golden yellow, sandy tan, or light brown for the lions’ bodies. Dad’s mane can be dark brown, rusty orange, or a mix of both. Give the cub a lighter coat so the two lions look different. Their noses may be black or dark brown, and their tongues can be pink if visible. Color the sign in a bright color that is easy to read. Add green grass and a pale blue sky behind them.
Lions live in groups called prides. A pride may include lionesses, cubs, and a few adult males. Male lions often grow big manes around their heads, although mane color and size can vary. Lion cubs are born with faint spots on their coats, which usually fade as they grow. Lions are sometimes called kings of the jungle, but most wild lions live in grasslands and open areas, not jungles.
