Many kids are attracted to lions because of the powerful image of the lion, the "king of beasts" which symbolizes strength and courage in many cultures, qualities that may appeal to children. Lions are often featured in children's storybooks, cartoons, and movies, such as Simba in The Lion King, and these images make lions relatable and fun. Images of lions are often used in children's arts and crafts activities, such as painting, cutting and pasting, and making lion masks. A lion's mane and majestic appearance may make children find them both majestic and cuddly.
