Oversized Serif Letter M for Coloring

Coloring guide

A single oversized capital letter M fills the page, drawn as a thick black outline with a plain white inside. The letter has a serif style, so you can see small flat feet at the bottom of both outer legs and flat tops on the upper corners. The two outer sides are straight and tall, and the diagonal strokes meet in a V shape that dips down toward the middle. The inner points of the V sit near the center, and the bottom of the center stroke ends in a flat base. Because the white space is so large, it works well for patterns. Try filling the M with stripes, dots, or zigzags, or write words that start with M, like moon or monkey, inside the sections. It also gives younger kids good practice staying inside bold lines while they learn the letter shape.
