Cat with Headphones

A cheerful cat sits with big padded headphones over its ears and its mouth wide open, as if singing along to the music. Music notes, bubbles, stars and sparkles float all around. The cat and headphones are big and simple, the decorations a little smaller: about 60 areas, an easy page from age 3.

Give the headphones a bold color like red or electric blue, with black or dark gray ear pads. Then go over the music notes with fluorescent highlighters in yellow, green and pink for a glowing party look, and save the softer colors for the cat.

Pastel colors suit the kawaii look: pale pink cheeks, mint and lavender backgrounds.

Leave a small white dot in each eye: it makes the cat look alive.
