Baby Chicken Hatching Out of a Cracked Egg
Coloring guide
Here a cheerful chick pops out of a cracked eggshell, wings stretched wide and beak open in a big smile. The top half of the shell rests on its head like a tiny hat, with zigzag edges along the crack. Its eyes are big and round with shiny highlights, there's a small tuft of hair on top, and a few curved lines mark the feathery tummy. Grass tufts sit in the bottom corners beside the egg. Bold outlines and large shapes keep this free printable easy for preschoolers and young kids. Soft yellow suits the fluffy chick, orange fits the beak, and the shell looks sweet in pastel blue or pink. It's a nice one for Easter, spring lessons, or a quiet afternoon at home or in class. Kids who like Chicken coloring pages usually enjoy Owl and Dinosaurs too.
