Samurai Beside Japan Flag With Cherry Blossoms

Samurai Beside Japan Flag With Cherry Blossoms coloring page

Coloring guide

A man in traditional Japanese dress stands at the left of the page with a sword tucked at his waist, wearing a wide-shouldered jacket with small crest marks over pleated hakama pants and flat sandals. His hair is pulled up into a topknot. Next to him is a large rectangular flag with a plain circle in the center, and above it a cherry blossom branch curves across the top right, with open flowers and a few small buds. The circle and the flag background are left empty, so they are easy to fill in. Kids could color the circle red and leave the background white to match the real flag of Japan, then use soft pinks for the blossoms. This free printable also works well for a short geography or culture lesson about Japan, since the clothing, flag, and flowers all give you something to talk about.
