Six Patterned Hearts with Petal Wings in Britto Style

Six heart shapes float across the page at different sizes, each tilted at its own angle. Every heart has a thick black outline and is filled with separate sections of pattern, including polka dot circles, thin diagonal stripes and plain bands. Rounded petal-like shapes stick out from behind each heart, a bit like wings or flower leaves, and they carry the same stripes and dots. A large heart sits in the middle left, with smaller ones scattered around it in the corners and along the right edge. The bold lines and open sections suit chunky markers and crayons. Try giving each heart its own color family, then fill the dotted, striped and plain sections in bright contrasting shades so the patterns stand out. This free printable also works well for talking about pattern and size with younger kids.
