Three Little Ghosts Floating in a Row Coloring Page

Three small ghosts line up tallest to smallest from left to right, and they rest on a shared baseline rather than drifting apart. The tallest holds the left edge, the middle one overlaps it slightly, and the smallest tucks in on the right with its arm nub almost touching its neighbor.

Every face is reduced to five marks. Two filled oval eyes, two small blush ticks and one shallow curved smile. Nothing else. The two smaller ghosts have short arm stubs at their sides and the tallest has none at all.

The outlines are even and unbroken around each body, and none of them are fine enough for a thick felt tip to lose, so crayons, markers and pencils all suit this page. What makes it quiet is the spacing rather than the line weight, since the three bodies stand far enough apart to be colored one at a time.

The drawing sits in the middle band of the paper and the bottom quarter stays empty. Fewer than twelve areas in total, all of them generous. The overlapping bodies also make it a good one for showing a child how to work behind something before working in front of it.
