Waving American Flag Presidents' Day Printable

Coloring guide
A big American flag ripples in the wind on a tall pole topped with a round ball, just waiting for color. Rows of outlined stars fill the blue corner, known as the canton, and thirteen wavy stripes stretch across the rest. Three puffy clouds float nearby, one on each side at the top and one near the bottom right. Thick, clean outlines and roomy stripes suit kids who are building crayon control, while the stars give older children some detail to tackle. Red and blue for the stripes and canton, white stars left as they are, and a light blue sky or gray-blue shading on the clouds would all work. This free printable fits Presidents' Day lessons, patriotic holidays or a quiet classroom activity. This fits right in with our Presidents' Day coloring pages — see also Halloween and Gingerbread House.
