Coloring Guide: Dora’s Festive Outfit & Birthday Party Decor

1. Birthday Girl Dora & Boots the Monkey:
Color Dora’s classic bob haircut in warm chestnut brown, giving her warm golden-tan skin tones and lively dark brown eyes. Shade her signature T-shirt in bright magenta pink, paired with sunny orange shorts and yellow ruffled socks. For Boots, use light powder-blue fur, a pale peach tummy, and his unmistakable bright red rubber boots.

2. Multi-Tier Birthday Cake & Lit Candles:
Make the celebratory birthday cake pop with delicious layers: creamy vanilla white, sweet strawberry pink, or mint green frosting with contrasting purple drip frosting. Color the candle sticks in alternating rainbow stripes, topping each wick with a radiant golden-yellow and bright orange glowing flame.

3. Star Balloons, Presents & Confetti:
Fill the festive background with joyful rainbow vibrance! Color the floating star-shaped balloons in vibrant cobalt blue, sunny yellow, and emerald green. Shade the wrapped gift boxes in bright purples and teals tied with curly yellow ribbons, finishing the scene with colorful scattered confetti across the floor.
