Jack-o-Lantern With a Little Bat Perched by the Stem

Jack-o-Lantern With a Little Bat Perched by the Stem printable coloring page

Coloring guide

A big grinning jack-o-lantern sits on a small nest of grass with a cartoon bat perched on its top beside the stem. The pumpkin has curved, happy eyes, a triangle nose, and a wide smile with a few square teeth showing. Ridged lines run down its round sides. The bat has large rounded ears, a cheerful squinting face, a little tuft of fur on its head, and a round belly patch. Its wings are spread out behind it with jagged edges, and its feet grip the pumpkin. A curled tail pokes up behind the stem. The bold outlines and roomy sections make this page free to print and easy for younger kids to color. Try shading the pumpkin in a few different oranges section by section, then talk about how bats and pumpkins show up around Halloween.
