Family Camping Under Summer Stars Coloring Page

A ridge tent stands open at the center of this page and four people are sitting in the mouth of it, shoulder to shoulder. An adult in a cap sits at the left with an arm stretched out, two small children sit in the middle, and a second adult with long hair sits beside them. In front, a campfire burns inside a ring of stones. A cooler with a handle sits to the left, a low bench to the right, and a pine tree stands guard at each side. Above everything, two dozen eight pointed stars and small round dots fill the night sky, one of them much larger than the rest.

The stars are what make this sheet worth printing. They are all the same shape at different sizes, scattered rather than placed, and they give a young child somewhere easy to go when the figures get too fiddly.

Faces here are two dots and a curve. There is no detail to ruin, which suits a four year old.

Worth mentioning while you color the sky: you can see perhaps two hundred stars from a lit street and several thousand from a dark field. Nothing changes except how much light is in the way.
