Four Hands Holding One Torch for Martin Luther King Jr. Day
Coloring guide
Four hands rise from the bottom of the page and grip a single big torch together, and that shared hold is what this picture is all about. Two hands are larger and two are child-sized, and the arms stretch down toward the corners. A bowl-shaped cup at the top holds a tall flame with a smaller flame drawn inside. Short wedge-shaped rays burst around the fire, and four five-pointed stars float in the white space. Bold lines and big shapes make it easy for younger children, and older kids have room to add shading. Golden yellow and orange look good in the inner flame with red on the outer one. Giving the hands a mix of skin tones shows people of many backgrounds working together. It's a nice match for Martin Luther King Jr. Day lessons on unity. The free PDF prints at home with no sign-up.
