Printable Coloring Sheets for the Year of the Tiger

 What could be a simpler craft than a Year of the Tiger coloring sheet? These include links to printable files, so it's a snap to choose the ones you want on your print and print them up. I also like th fact that they inlcude the phrase "Happy New Year" in English, Chinese, and pinyin (a system that uses letters to indicate how the words are pronounced.) And some are soo cute! There are lots to choose from, with 15 in portrait orientation and 155 in landscape orientation. It's a quick and easy way to celebrate Chinese New Year, The Year of the Tiger.
