About this Image
This funny Halloween scene shows a cheerful ghost floating beside a grinning pumpkin lantern. Kids can choose ghostly white, bright orange pumpkin sections, and playful colors for the Halloween details. It is a friendly choice for preschoolers and early elementary children who enjoy silly, not-too-scary characters. Invite children to name the ghost's expression and count the pumpkin's face shapes before they begin. For easier coloring, print the PNG on thicker paper and place it on a clipboard or firm surface. Try this after coloring: Spend one minute having the child give the ghost a silly name and make up one sentence about why it is visiting the pumpkin. After coloring, sort Halloween words from the page into two groups: things that can float, like a ghost, and things that stay on the ground, like a pumpkin.
