Cute describes the expression and mood, not a difficulty level. These pages range from a few large shapes to a busy room.

A smiling, large-eared bat with outstretched wings beneath a crescent moon and three stars.

One character and a few shapes

The bat, moon and stars have broad open areas. Choose this for a short coloring session.

Little Bat Under the Moon →
A smiling boy stands behind a candle-topped cake between two balloons.

A familiar celebration

The boy, cake and balloons add several separate objects. The blank banners can hold a handwritten greeting.

A boy's birthday cake →
A child brings Grandma a flower-decorated cake in a conservatory filled with plants and a tea set.

A scene to explore slowly

The tea table, flowers and conservatory contain many small spaces. Start with the cake or one cup.

Choose a stopping point before printing

Print the original line drawing linked below. The numbered areas match the color key and steps; use the colored example as a starting point, then choose your own colors if you prefer.

Digital coloring example

Lavender bat with purple wings; the moon and stars remain uncolored.
A digital color suggestion, not a photograph of a printed result. Open the original line drawing to print and try your own colors.
  • 1. Lavender body
  • 2. Purple wings
  • 3. White moon and stars
  1. Color the bat’s body light lavender, keeping its facial lines and white eye highlights clear.
  2. Use purple inside the broad wing sections, stopping at their outlines.
  3. Leave the moon, stars and background white. Completing just the bat makes a small, finished project.

Let interest and the actual size of the spaces guide the choice. You can leave the surrounding scene uncolored.
