Bubbling Volcano Experiment With a Curious Boy
Coloring guide
A wide-eyed boy in an apron leans over a foamy, bubbling model volcano, hands resting on the table while frothy lava spills down its rocky sides. The model sits on a round plate with bubbles gathered around the base. His little science corner has a flask and a beaker of bubbly liquid on the left, a rack of test tubes on the right, and a magnifying glass lying in front. A potted plant sits on a shelf in the background. Lines are bold and clean, so this free printable suits younger kids, while the bubbles and rocky texture give older kids small details to fill in. Bright orange and red fit the foamy eruption, and cool blue or green makes the liquid in the flask and test tubes stand out. It's a good one for science fans or a classroom activity. This fits right in with our Volcano coloring pages — see also Forest and Star.
