Simple lantern with stars for little kids - Chinese new year coloring pages for preschool

About this coloring page

One big lantern with thick outlines and a few large stars around it: this is the simplest sheet in the set and one of our favorite Chinese New Year coloring pages for preschool. There are no tiny details, so toddlers can fill each stripe of the lantern with a chunky crayon or a paint brush. Red and yellow are the easiest choice, and the stars can be any color. Older siblings can color the lion dance lion with a single horn at the same table. Talk about why lanterns are lit at New Year while coloring.
