Funny Wobbly Jack-O'-Lantern Coloring Pages

Coloring page story

Jack had a wobbly smile. The little boy who carved him had giggled the whole time, so one side of his smile went up much higher than the other. "Oh dear," Jack thought, looking at the other pumpkins on the step. "They all have such straight, spooky smiles. I just look... silly."

That night, children came to the door. They pointed at the other pumpkins and said, "Ooh, spooky!" But when they saw Jack, they stopped and began to giggle. "Look at his funny smile!" a little girl in a fairy costume chirped. "He's making me laugh!"

Jack felt a warm glow inside, and it wasn't just his candle. He learned that being spooky was fun, but making children happy with a silly, wobbly smile was the best job of all.

Coloring page Age Appropriateness

The chibi style with large heads and expressive faces is highly appealing to 3-5 year olds. The theme of a 'silly' face making someone happy is a simple, positive concept they can easily grasp. The large, uncluttered shapes are perfect for developing fine motor control.

Coloring Page Printing Tips

Print on smooth, sturdy paper to give a good surface for crayons. If using markers, placing a spare sheet of paper underneath can protect your table. A clear print will help your child stay within the bold lines of the Jack-O'-Lantern and his friend.

Recommended Tools

Glitter crayons or glitter glue (with adult supervision!) could add a magical touch to the fairy's costume. Broad-tip markers are excellent for filling in the large areas of the Jack-O'-Lantern and the background quickly and easily.
