Boat with Flag and Sails on Waves Coloring Page

Free Boat with Flag and Sails printable page

This sailing coloring page shows a nice sailboat with triangular sails puffing in the wind, a flag on the top of the mast, a circular hull with small portholes for both cabin and crew, a rugged hull, and moving along nice gentle, wavy lines that suggest a calm and open ocean. The clear lines and shapes like mast, rudder, and deck details suggest a windy adventure on the open sea - where kids can add whatever they want; perhaps seagulls or far-off deserted islands. This is a free printable, so download and print this adventurous image and start the kids off on their maritime imagination.

This coloring page allows kids to pick deep blues for the waves, bright white for the sails, deep red for the flag, and maybe yellow for a sunny sky while learning about sailing and navigating the ocean. It would lend its self well to vacation themes, educational units, or quiet time, and encourage kids to imagine stories about sailing across the ocean or being pirates - recent versions of pirate stories are quite hip for chuckling. The wavy patterns of the lines will continue the story of imagination by allowing for effects like foam in the waves, or anything else to help create an engaging, relaxing, learning opportunity in art.
