Coloring page Smiling Boy Wearing a Pocketed Shirt

A smiling boy stands beside a small table with one hand near the edge. His short hair has a large section swept to one side above his forehead. His collared, short-sleeved shirt has a clearly outlined front pocket with a defined top edge. The pocket’s rounded bottom contrasts with the straight lines of the shirt opening. On the table are boards with small shapes and a lantern with a handle. One board stands upright, while the other lies flat on the tabletop. The large figure and the tiny sections on the boards offer noticeably different-sized spaces to fill with color.
In preschool, this activity can support a conversation with a teacher about what doctors wear during a lesson on different jobs. Comparing the shapes on the upright board helps children practice observation skills and spot similarities between small symbols. This printable coloring page for kids lets children choose their own colors for the boy and the objects on the table. Talking together about where the objects are helps reinforce words such as beside, above, and below. A pocket holds small things we want to keep close at hand. Try blue and yellow for the pocket, using different colors for the inside and the top edge where items slip in. Use short strokes with colored pencils to fill the small sections on the board, guiding the tip carefully along the outlines.
Download the picture and color the boy and everything on the table.
