A smiling young witch stirs a pumpkin-shaped cauldron with a long wooden spoon. Her oversized pointed hat bends at the tip, a round clasp fastens her cloak, and two bubbles drift beside her. Wavy hair frames her face while the broad pumpkin sections give the cauldron its unusual shape. This witch coloring page combines roomy areas with smaller details in the hair, buckle, and hands.
The bubbling pot makes a useful starting point for a make-believe Halloween recipe. Children can decide whether the witch is mixing moonlight soup, a sparkling rainbow potion, or a drink that makes pumpkins giggle. Choose contrasting colors for the hat and cloak, then repeat one color in the bubbles to connect the design. The spoon and rounded pot also offer an opportunity to talk about long, short, curved, and straight shapes.
Download this free printable witch coloring page for a Halloween craft table, print a copy for a storytelling activity, or color it online on Zumipic. Work on the large cauldron first and save the hair and hat buckle for a sharper pencil or a smaller brush. When the picture is finished, invent three imaginary ingredients for the witch’s recipe and explain what each one does.
