Bold beach coloring page with a large starfish, striped seashell, sand dots, and a curling wave.

Starfish and Shell by the Rolling Wave

A big starfish rests beside a striped shell while a tall curling wave wiggles down the right side of the sandy beach.

🎨 How to color it

Give the starfish a bright coral orange, the striped shell sunny yellow and peach, and the curling wave ocean blue. Use chunky crayons to fill the starfish arms and wave spaces, and don’t worry if little hands color over the bold lines. Add tiny purple or green dots in the sand to make a playful trail around the shell.

The story behind this coloring page

Zuzu’s Wave-Run Game — Every day, Zuzu tapped one toe in the wet sand: pat, pat, stop. She wanted to play her new Wave-Run Game—dash to the starfish, touch the shell, hop back fast. Read the full story →

Every day, Zuzu tapped one toe in the wet sand: pat, pat, stop. She wanted to play her new Wave-Run Game—dash to the starfish, touch the shell, hop back fast.

Until one day, whoooosh! A wave curled close and fizzed at her toes. Because of that, Zuzu squeaked, “Go, feet!” and jumped to the shell. Because of THAT, she laughed and hopped all the way back, splish-splash-brave. Next time you see the starfish and shell, can you whisper, “Go, feet,” too?
