A cheerful little ghost settles down with an open book in this cozy Halloween coloring page. Its floppy sleeping cap has a round pompom, and two small hands hold the book steady. A crescent moon and two stars float beside the ghost. The broad sheet folds, blank book cover, and roomy cap give children several clear areas to fill with their favorite colors.
For children who enjoy cute ghost coloring pages, this quiet reading scene offers a friendly Halloween character with a story to invent. What could the ghost be reading before bedtime: a tale about a lost pumpkin, a gentle spell, or an adventure among the stars? Try a purple cap, a turquoise book, and a pale yellow moon. Leaving part of the ghost white can make the surrounding colors stand out.
Print this free ghost coloring page for a reading corner activity, download it for a rainy afternoon, or color it online on Zumipic. Begin with the largest shapes, then add a different shade to the book’s spine and the cap’s band. After coloring, children can tell a short bedtime story about their ghost or place the finished drawing beside their favorite Halloween books.
