About this coloring page

On this page you'll find all eight phases of the Moon in an arch across the night sky, from New Moon to Full Moon and back, with a telescope on a hill. Every page in this set is a different drawing. The bold outlines are easy to stay inside, even with chunky crayons.

Coloring ideas

Color the Sun with yellow in the middle and orange near the edge so it looks like it glows.
Press lightly with a blue crayon over the whole background, then go over the stars with yellow.
Use stripes of cream, tan and orange on Jupiter and Saturn, and a red-orange oval for the Great Red Spot.

Printing tips

Download the PDF for the sharpest result and print at 100% (or “fit to page” on A4). The PNG is 300 DPI, which is handy for tablets and coloring apps. This page is free for personal, family and classroom use.
