Light Bulb Moment for a Thinking Emoji

Coloring guide
With one hand on its chin and a pointer finger stretched along the cheek, this round smiley strikes the classic thinking pose and looks up with wide eyes. A glowing light bulb with short rays floats above its head, so a bright idea has clearly just arrived. Three curly swirls drift around the face and give the page a playful, buzzing-with-thoughts feel. Raised eyebrows and a small curved smile make it look curious and happy, not puzzled. Bold lines and large shapes suit younger kids, and the page could also fit a classroom brainstorming or problem-solving lesson. Coloring the bulb and rays sunny yellow lets the idea really light up, and warm orange or soft blue would go nicely on the face. It's a free PDF, so print a few extra copies. Fans of Emoji coloring pages often like Cake and Candy as well.

A suggested order, zone by zone — skip around as you like.
- 1Color the big round face and the thinking hand in golden yellow, keeping the eye whites and eye shines empty.
- 2Fill the light bulb in lemon yellow, then color the two thin filament lines inside it the same lemon yellow.
- 3Color the three stacked ridges at the bottom of the bulb in light gray so the base looks metallic.
- 4Color the sleeve cuff at the wrist in sky blue.
- 5Leave the eye whites and their shiny highlights white, and keep the swirls and rays on the background white or lightly tinted.
- 6Optional: add light back-and-forth strokes of a slightly deeper yellow over the face and hand for a textured, crayon-like look.
