Smoky Volcano with Lava Drips and Boulders

This cone-shaped volcano sends up one big puff of smoke from its open crater, and the cloud has a bumpy, rounded outline. Wavy lava drips spill over the rim and slide down the top of the mountain, and a few curved lines on the slopes add some texture. Three rounded boulders of different sizes rest along the bottom edge. Because the outlines are thick and the spaces are large, younger kids can color it without much trouble staying inside the lines. Orange and red work nicely for the lava against a brown or gray mountain, and a pale gray cloud keeps the smoke soft. It's a free printable that fits a science lesson on volcanoes or a calm afternoon at home. If you enjoyed this Volcano page, don't miss our City and Solar System & Space coloring pages.
