Child Jumping In A Pile Of Autumn Leaves Coloring Page

A child in a knitted hat and a long scarf leaps above a heap of maple leaves, caught side on with one arm thrown up. The clothing gives you distinct areas to work with: a ribbed hat band, a coat with a banded hem, a scarf that loops once at the neck and boots with a cuff at the ankle. Color each item separately and the outfit looks assembled rather than issued as a uniform. Below, a wide mound of leaves spreads across the full width of the page, and every leaf in it shows its own outline and veins even where they overlap. That mound is the long job on this sheet. Seven more leaves float in the air around the jumping figure with white space all around them, which makes them the easy warm up. Jumping into leaves is one of the few autumn activities that costs nothing, and this page works well pinned up after the real thing. The figure is drawn in profile with a simple face, so a child coloring it can decide it is them.
