Lunchbox Coloring Page
About This Coloring Page
Packing the lunchbox is the morning routine every school and preschool family runs, and the page puts it on the table with a face on: a smiling open lunchbox on a round wooden table, a sandwich, an apple and a little juice box tucked inside, a window with two potted plants on the sill and a shelf of books behind.
The lunchbox is one big rounded shape with a lid to fill in another colour, the sandwich is a square with a wavy filling, the apple is a circle with a leaf, and the juice box is a small rectangle with a straw. The table top is wood grain to trace in long lines, and the books on the shelf are a row of rectangles to colour one at a time.
Ask what goes in the lunchbox at your house and what the lunchbox is smiling about. Then colour it together the night before school, and the page becomes the morning routine a child walks into instead of being chased to.
Skills Practiced
How to Use This Coloring Page
- Lunchbox first. The box in one colour, the open lid in another, then the face.
- Then what is inside. The sandwich and its filling, the apple and its leaf, the juice box and its straw.
- Table, window and shelf last. The wood lines on the table, the two plants in the window, then every book on the shelf. Ask what you would pack tomorrow.
