Sun Colouring Page for Kids
This sun colouring page shows a round, smiling sun with rays spreading out all around it, a bright and cheerful picture that children aged 2 to 7 adore. The sun is one of the first things little ones draw, so this page feels warm and familiar from the very first crayon stroke.
The central circle is easy to fill, while the pointed rays give lovely practice colouring small shapes one by one. Your child might reach for yellow, orange or even red to make their sun feel hot and glowing, then add a happy face to bring it to life.
Colouring this page builds fine motor skills, a steady pencil grip and confident colour recognition. Counting the rays adds gentle early maths, too. Sunny and uplifting, this page is a wonderful way to start the day, brightening your child's mood while quietly strengthening their focus and creativity.
Free for home and classroom use. Print on plain A4 paper and grab your crayons.
