Coloring page Cheerful Gnome Holding a Heart

A smiling gnome stands on the grass among large flowers with rounded petals. He wears a tall hat with oval patches and a simple shirt, sporting a wide mustache and a long beard. In one hand, he holds a heart, and beside him are stems with leaves. Under his feet, there are distinct tufts of grass and large shoes with marked creases.

This printable is perfect for quiet activities in preschool after group storytime. The illustration helps kids practice careful contour tracing and recognize plant shapes and clothing elements. The bold lines make it easier for kids to color. The picture encourages conversations about emotions, as the character is clearly smiling and holding a heart. The oval patch on the hat organizes the pattern and can highlight the character’s personality. It’s worth coloring this patch in yellow and red, as these colors stand out well against the small shapes inside. Use crayons for filling in small areas and guide them with short strokes from the outline to the center.

Print and color the gnome and flowers, then share your work with the group.
