On this Groundhog Day coloring page, a cheerful groundhog pokes its head and front paws out of a burrow in a grassy hill, and its shadow lies on the ground to its right. Happy Groundhog Day fills the top in round bubble letters, beside a smiling sun and puffy clouds. It is an easy page for ages 3 to 7, with thick outlines and large open spaces for crayons.

How this coloring page was created

For this page, we typed this idea into Colorin AI: "the words Happy Groundhog Day in big bubble letters at the top of the page, above a cute groundhog peeking out of its burrow in a small grassy hill, with its shadow on the ground beside it and a smiling sun in the sky, drawn with simple bold outlines for kids, the hill kept small enough to leave a wide white margin below it, with the whole drawing kept above an empty white margin at the bottom of the page".

How to use it

Groundhog Day is February 2 every year. Folk tradition says that if the groundhog sees its shadow, there will be six more weeks of winter. A preschool or kindergarten teacher can ask the class to vote on whether the groundhog will see its shadow, then color the page and find the shadow in the drawing. A family can color it together on the morning of February 2.
