Candy Canes with Bow Coloring Page

About this coloring page

Two candy canes cross in the middle, each with a happy face, and a big bow ties them together. Every stripe is its own space, so there are lots of narrow bands to color.

Striped pages teach patience and pattern at the same time. If red and white feels too plain, let your child invent a new flavor, such as green and pink or blue and yellow, and name it. The bow in the middle has four parts, two loops and two tails, which can match the stripes or stand out in a different color.

Fun fact

Candy canes are usually flavored with peppermint.

• Color ideaColor every other stripe red and leave the rest white, then make the bow green.
• After coloringSay the pattern out loud while coloring: red, white, red, white.
