What's In This Picture
As you look across the lunar landscape, you will find an astronaut standing near deep moon craters. The astronaut holds a flag with Happy Birthday written across it. Nearby, a helpful rover sits next to a stack of wrapped gifts and a tall birthday cake topped with glowing candles. Floating above are several alien balloons shaped like friendly extraterrestrial faces.
In the background, our home planet, Earth, glows alongside the ringed planet Saturn. The dark sky is filled with twinkling stars and several bright shooting stars zooming past. Every detail, from the small craters to the astronaut space suit, provides a unique area to explore with color.
Coloring Tips
For the moon surface, try using different shades of gray or even a light lavender to make the craters pop. The Earth looks beautiful with bright blues and greens, while Saturn can be colored with layers of gold, tan, or orange for its famous rings. Since it is a birthday, the cake and alien balloons are perfect for your brightest, most vibrant colors like neon pink, lime green, or electric blue.
You might use a dark navy or deep purple for the vast space background to help the white stars and yellow shooting stars stand out. If you have metallic crayons or glitter pens, they would work perfectly for the astronaut visor or the flickering candle flames.
Did You Know?
Did you know that because there is no wind on the moon, footprints left by astronauts stay there for millions of years? If you had a birthday party on the moon, your tracks around the cake would remain exactly where you left them for a very long time.
Try This!
After finishing the page, you could try drawing your own alien guest arriving at the party. You might also write a list of what special space snacks you would serve at a moon celebration, such as moon cheese or star-shaped cookies.
