Cutaway Volcano With Magma Chamber and Happy Sun

Coloring guide
This cone-shaped volcano is cut open so kids can peek inside. A long magma channel runs from a big empty chamber underground up to the crater. Wavy layers of earth surround the channel, with rocks and tiny pebbles scattered through them. Small blobs drip down the upper slopes, and rolling hills with little bushes sit behind. In the sky, a happy sun with a big open-mouth smile and short rays shines beside three puffy clouds. It's a free printable that works well for a classroom lesson on how volcanoes are built, or just a quiet afternoon at home. Bright orange and red will make the channel and chamber pop against brown and tan soil layers, and then you can add yellow to the sun and light blue to the clouds. The large open shapes are easy for small hands. Fans of Volcano coloring pages often like Forest and Star as well.
