Flower-Scarf Matryoshka Doll With a Little Smile

Coloring guide
Sitting front and center is a cheerful nesting doll with big round eyes, long lashes, rosy circle cheeks and a small smile. Her headscarf has a five-petal flower at the top, a smaller flower on each side of her face and leaf shapes along the fabric. It's tied in a bow with a round knot under her chin. On her body is a large flower with a round center and four leaves around it, and a scalloped edge runs along the bottom of her apron. Big shapes and clean outlines make this free printable a good one for preschoolers and early elementary kids who are still building pencil control. Bright red on the scarf and apron works nicely, with yellow for the big center flower so it pops. Crayons, markers or colored pencils all do the job, and the plain white background leaves space for patterns. Kids who like Matryoshka Dolls coloring pages usually enjoy Sugar Skulls (Día de Muertos) and Jesus / Bible too.
