Coloring page story

After a long day, a child is thankful for the bumpy car ride that helps them fall asleep.

Coloring page Age Appropriateness

The familiar experience of falling asleep in the car is highly relatable for the 3-5 age group. The simple, contained scene is not overwhelming. The large, basic shapes are perfect for their motor skills. It’s a wonderful, gentle way to extend the thanksgiving theme to the very end of the day, showing gratitude for rest and comfort.

Coloring Page Coloring Instructions

The long, happy day is over, and this little one is sleepy. Let's make them super cozy. You can color their car seat a soft, comfy color. What color is their warm blanket? Look out the window! You can color the moon and stars in the night sky. The bumpy ride is like a thanksgiving lullaby.

Coloring Page Printing Tips

Print on standard paper. This is the perfect coloring page for a quiet evening or as part of a bedtime routine. It can help a child wind down and reflect on the things they were thankful for during their busy day.

Recommended Tools

Crayons are an excellent choice for this page, as their waxy texture can create a soft, comforting look, especially for the blanket. A dark blue crayon can be used for the night sky outside the window.
