Colouring PagesSailing boat colouring page
A sailing boat to print on A4 paper or to colour on the screen. Easy
How to use this page
On paper: tap "Print the blank page". Only the picture is printed, with a line for the child's name. On screen: tap a colour, then tap a part of the picture to fill it. "Undo" takes back the last fill, and white rubs a part out. Nothing is saved; the picture is fresh each time you open it.
Colour ideas
Sails can be white or striped in bright colours. The boat is brown or red, the water blue, the sun yellow.
Straight edges are good practice for a steady hand. Colour along the inside of each line first, then fill the middle. When the picture is finished, ask who owns it or where it is going, and let the child draw that around it.
