Shaggy Running From a Big Scary Ghost Monster

A wide-eyed Shaggy leaps away from a huge, hooded ghost creature in this action-packed scene. Shaggy has shaggy hair, a small goatee, an open mouth and a loose V-neck shirt. One arm is stretched out and one foot kicks up behind him, which makes the scene feel like a frantic escape. The monster looms behind him with a stretched, hollow-looking face, a gaping mouth, bulky draped shoulders and giant hands with spread fingers. A dark doorway or frame sits behind them, with a slanted floor edge at the lower right. The big open areas on the monster's body are easy for small hands to color. Try spooky grays and purples for the ghost and a bright contrast on Shaggy's shirt, then ask kids to describe how each character feels. This printable page is a fun pick for Halloween or a rainy afternoon.
