About this coloring page
Three happy bats with big pointed ears, round piggy noses and tiny fangs fly in front of an enormous full moon. One bat flies at the front with its wings stretched wide, while two smaller bats fly higher up on either side. The moon is covered in wavy craters, and fluffy clouds float all around the edges.
Coloring ideas
Bats can be black, brown, gray or even purple, with pink inside the ears. Color the moon pale yellow with light gray spots, and give the clouds a soft blue or lavender. A deep navy sky behind everything makes the scene glow.
Skills practiced
Real bats sleep during the day and fly at night, so this page is a good start for talking about nocturnal animals. Counting the bats, their ears and their wings is a quick multiplication warm-up for older kids: three bats with two wings each.
Printing tips
The wings have several sections, which suits crayons for younger kids and colored pencils for older ones. Print a few and cut out the bats to make a hanging mobile for the classroom. Glow-in-the-dark crayons on the moon make a fun surprise when the lights go out.
