About Space coloring pages
Space is full of shapes kids love: rockets, round planets, twinkly stars and astronauts in big helmets. Our space coloring pages start with a little rocket. Space fans can also find an astronaut cat, an astronaut doll and a unicorn in an astronaut helmet in the Cat, Barbie and Unicorn sections.
For a space scene, try coloring the background dark blue or black and leaving the stars white. Rockets look great with red, white and silver, plus orange and yellow flames.
How to use space coloring pages for learning
Countdown. Count down from ten together before your child starts coloring the rocket. Blast off on zero.
Planet order. Draw the planets in order from the sun around the rocket: Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars and so on.
Day and night. Use a flashlight and a ball to show how Earth turns from day to night.
Astronaut jobs. Talk about what astronauts do and what they would need to pack for a trip to space.
