About this coloring page

A big, gnarled tree with a smiling face in its trunk spreads curly, twisting branches across the page. A wooden swing hangs on two ropes from one branch, a small carved pumpkin sits among the tangled roots, and several leaves drift down through the air. Its roots spread wide over the ground like long, curling fingers.

Coloring ideas

Color the trunk brown, gray or even purple, and the leaves in fall colors like red, orange and gold. A dark orange or purple sunset sky behind the branches looks wonderfully spooky. The pumpkin can glow with a yellow face.

Skills practiced

Trees lose their leaves in fall, so this page is an easy way to talk about the seasons. Children can count the falling leaves and describe the tree with words like twisty, tall, old and bumpy. The swing is a good spot to talk about pushes and pulls, a first taste of forces and motion.

Printing tips

The bark has many curving lines, so colored pencils work best. Older kids can add more leaves, a moon or an owl in the branches for a full scene.
