Play Blocks Tower Colouring Page

Five chunky blocks are stacked one on top of the other, each one a plain rectangle with rounded corners and a line of shading down one side to show its edge. The stack is not perfectly straight; it leans a little as it climbs, the way a real pile of blocks does just before it topples. The very top block has a face drawn on it: two closed, curved sleepy eyes and a small smiling mouth. Down at the bottom, next to the last block, sits a plain round ball, drawn as one large circle with nothing inside it.

There is nothing fiddly here. Each block is one big, closed space, so a child can colour it in with a single crayon without worrying about staying inside tiny lines. The ball gives them a second large, simple shape to fill, and because it is round rather than square-cornered, it is a nice thing to point out while colouring: which shapes have corners, which one does not. The leaning stack is also worth a comment before the crayons come out. Ask your child which block looks like it is about to slide off, or whether they think the tower will stay up.

This is an easy sheet. The five blocks and one ball make six shapes in total, all of them large and none broken up by extra lines, so it suits younger colourers who are still learning to stay inside an outline. It also works well as a quick, calm activity for a slightly older child who just wants something pleasant to colour without much challenge, especially if they like giving each block its own colour to build a rainbow tower.
