  • Next, place a little bit of black and white washable kids paint onto a paper plate (optional). You can simplify this step and dip the paintbrush right into the paint bottle, washing the paintbrush in between colors.
  • Using the white paint, color in the ears for each animal and then parts of the face (refer to the picture below). Let the paint dry.
