Bob Waving a Checkered Flag Near the Barn

Bob the Builder stands in the front corner of the scene in his hard hat, checkered shirt sleeves, overalls and a tool belt with tools tucked into the pockets. He holds a big checkered flag in one raised hand and waves with the other, smiling. Behind him a paved road curves past a tall wooden barn with vertical boards. A large tractor with a cab frame, a round exhaust pipe on the hood and chunky treaded tires comes along the road, and its front grille has a diamond pattern. Rolling hills, a small tree, bushes and one puffy cloud fill the background. Print it for a race day activity: color the flag in classic black and white squares or bright team colors, then talk about what the flag tells the tractor to do. The wide tires and barn boards are good spots for kids practicing careful coloring.
