Waving Skeleton Hand With a Smiley Palm
Coloring guide
Right in the middle of the page, a cheerful skeleton hand waves hello, with a big open smile and round sparkly eyes drawn on the palm. All five finger bones spread wide, the thumb sticks out to the side like it's mid-wave, and the wrist bones and two long forearm bones run down to the bottom edge. Five small outlined stars float around it, one near each corner and one by the wrist. Thick, clean lines and roomy bone shapes make it easy for younger kids to stay inside. It's a giggly, gentle take on bones, good for a classroom body-science lesson or a not-too-spooky Halloween activity. Soft lavender or pale blue suits the bones, and bright yellow suits the stars. Print this sheet at home for class or a rainy day. More like this: explore the Skeleton, Fairy and Ghost coloring page collections.
