Estimated time: 5–10 min
Difficulty: Easy
Areas to color: about 4

Coloring order

Color the top horizontal band red, pushing your crayon sideways in long strokes between the band's top and bottom lines.
Color the bottom band a deep blue and leave the middle band white.
Compare the width of the three bands by eye, and gently tidy the edge of the white band if any color spread into it.

Questions to talk about

Do the top, middle and bottom bands look the same thickness?
If you could draw a picture in the white middle band, what would it be?
Do you own anything red or anything blue?

Take it further

Stack building blocks or colored paper in red, white and blue rows, then swap the order and talk about whether it feels different.

Age and time are rough guides for a child coloring alone with pencils or crayons; every child is different. The area count is an estimate counted from the line-art image.

Printing and coloring tips

Print on A4 or Letter in portrait to keep the original proportions.
Keep the finished version open beside you while you color.
Use slightly heavier paper with water-based markers so the ink shows through less.
Fill the large areas first and leave the small ones for later.
The finished version is only a suggestion. Any colors you like will work.
