Colouring PagesMoon and stars colouring page
A moon and stars to print on A4 paper or to colour on the screen. Medium
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
The moon is pale yellow or white, the stars are yellow. If you colour the whole background dark blue, the picture becomes a night sky.
There is plenty of empty space around this picture. Use it: add birds as small "v" shapes, raindrops, grass along the bottom, or a border of leaves. Colouring the whole sky lightly, with the side of a crayon, makes the picture glow.
