Sun and clouds colouring page
A sun and clouds 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
The sun is yellow, with yellow or orange rays. Clouds can stay white, with a little blue or grey underneath.
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.
