Our Moon coloring page shows a big, friendly crescent moon smiling down on a couple of twinkling stars. The moon itself is super easy for little hands to color with its large, open spaces, and those stars are perfect for a touch of glitter glue!
Grab some glow-in-the-dark crayons for the moon and stars, then tape their finished masterpiece to the ceiling above their bed for a magical nighttime display!

Frequently asked questions
The lines look thick — is that on purpose?
Yes. Bold, uniform outlines are much more forgiving for small hands: they hide little slips, make each area easy to see, and photocopy cleanly if a teacher needs a class set. It's the same style used in classic early-childhood workbooks.
What should my child color it with?
Crayons and colored pencils are the safest bet on regular printer paper — markers look bold but can bleed through thin sheets. For preschoolers (around ages 3–4), chunky crayons or triangular pencils are easiest to grip.
How can I stretch this activity for my preschooler?
Talk while they work: name the picture's parts, count them, ask "what color next?" and "what happens in this story?". A printable plus five minutes of chat does more for vocabulary than the page alone ever will.
