Happy World Elephant Day on August 12! It's tusks up and trunks
waving for elephants, or, as Winnie-the-Pooh would say, heffalumps! Children,
do you want free printable elephant crafts
and activities? Would you like to print coloring pages of elephants (of course you would!) Well, ask mom and dad to
print these so you can celebrate Happy Heffalump Day!
A
famous elephant is Babar, and there are free printable Babar coloring pages from Educational Coloring Pages. Looking
for children's literature about elephants? Read the Babar books, by Jean de
Bruhoff. He introduced Babar to French children 1931 and was so loved the
stories were translated. Laurent de Brunhoff continued his father's book series
after Jean passed away. Get to know Babar then visit Hello Kids for even
more free printable Babar
coloring pages
