Coloring order
- Alternate red and yellow on the panels of the big parachute so the stripes pop. Leave the thin parachute lines as they are.
- Color the capsule pale cream and its base gray, then the face of the astronaut waving from the round window.
- Alternate blue and light blue on the rolling waves, color the small island on the right green, and the Sun and clouds on the left yellow and pale blue.
Questions to talk about
- The space capsule is coming home. Who is the astronaut waving at from the window?
- Why do you think the parachute is spread so wide? Let's imagine.
- How did you feel when you came home after being far away?
Take it further
Tie string to the four corners of a handkerchief and hang a little toy to make a parachute, then drop it from a low spot and watch it float down.
Age and time are rough guides for a child coloring alone with pencils or crayons; every child is different. The area count is an estimate counted from the line-art image.

Printing and coloring tips
- Print on A4 or Letter in portrait to keep the original proportions.
- Keep the finished version open beside you while you color.
- Use slightly heavier paper with water-based markers so the ink shows through less.
- Fill the large areas first and leave the small ones for later.
- The finished version is only a suggestion. Any colors you like will work.
