Questions
Why is Krishna shown with butter?
Little Krishna loved butter so much he'd steal it from the pots in Gokul: one of the best-loved stories of his childhood.
When is it best to use?
Janmashtami (August or September), and all year.
Is it really free?
Yes. Print as many as you like for home, classrooms, parties and libraries. Please link to this page rather than re-uploading the file.
Do you keep the names I type?
No. The page is drawn in your browser and the names never leave your device.
What paper should I use?
Ordinary printer paper is fine for crayons and pencils. For markers or paint, use a thicker 120 to 160 gsm paper so it doesn't bleed through.
