Trio of Gourds With Curly Vines and Leaves

Three large gourds sit side by side in this black-and-white outline. On the left is a tall, pear-shaped squash with a curved stem topped by a few curly tendrils. In the middle is a round, plump pumpkin with deep ribs and a bent stem, and a branch of veined leaves arches over its top. On the right, another tall squash with a long neck and a flat, upright stem has a small cluster of leaves near its top. More leaves tuck in around the bases of the pumpkins, and a thin curling vine winds along the bottom left. The shapes are big and the lines are clean, which makes this free printable easy for kids to color. Try giving each gourd its own color family, such as orange, tan, and deep green, then shade along the rib lines to show how the surface curves. It also works well for a Thanksgiving table or a harvest lesson on pumpkin and squash shapes.
