Angel coloring ideas
This printable could be colored with markers, color pencils, or even painted. The first thing to decide is what color the wings should be - if your child wants them to stay white, then you'll have to choose a background color so that the wings stand out nicely!
You could color the "sky" behind the angel blue, and use silver or gold star stickers to shine in the background.
Your budding fashion designer may want to do something a little different with the angel's outfit maybe? How about doing some stripes for her skirt, or blending a rainbow of colors into the tips of her wings?
Angel activities are usually in demand over Christmas time, which is an ideal moment for gift-giving! Your child could color or paint the angel, then glue the finished masterpiece onto cardstock. Affix a small calendar to the angel's skirt or the bottom of the printable, and you're all set.
