Desert Dance Party Starring a Cartoon Mummy
Coloring guide
Both hands are in the air, his mouth is wide open and his tongue is sticking out: this little mummy is having a great time dancing. Loose bandage strips swirl around his legs and spill onto the ground in big looping rings. His head, arms and body are wrapped in overlapping strips, and a few ends dangle from his wrists. The desert behind him is kept simple, with two pyramids on the right, a stack of stone blocks on the left, and small grass tufts on the sand. Bold, clean outlines and roomy bandage sections make this free printable easy for younger kids. Soft cream and tan suit the wrappings, sandy yellow works for the ground and pyramids, and you can add a bright pop of color to his big round eyes. It fits Halloween or an ancient Egypt lesson. Fans of Mummies coloring pages often like Halloween Costumes and Pumpkins as well.

- 2Fill the two pyramids in the background with burnt orange, and the stair blocks on the left with sandy gold.
- 3Color the inside of both sandals and the sand-filled parts of the sandal soles in bright yellow, and the sandal rims and straps in light cream.
- 4Add pale tan to the shadowed bandage folds on the arms, legs, and the hanging strips, so the wrapping looks layered.
