Night Flight With a Little Bat and a Big Full Moon

Across the page flies a cheerful little bat, both wings stretched wide. It has big round eyes, a tiny pig-like nose and two small fangs. A large moon sits behind it, covered in circle-shaped craters of different sizes. There are puffy clouds in the corners and along the bottom, plus small stars scattered over the night sky, including a tiny one at the bottom center. The pointed ears have an inner outline, and the round belly and little clawed feet are easy to find. Each wing has clear sections that are simple to color. Thick, clean lines suit preschoolers and early elementary kids with crayons or chunky markers. Soft purple on the bat against a pale yellow moon will make the little flyer pop from the glowing background. Print it free for Halloween or a quiet bedtime-hour activity. This fits right in with our Bat coloring pages — see also Ghost and Candy.
