Every picture on this circle shape coloring page is round and has a happy face. The big circle fills the middle of the sheet under the word CIRCLE, drawn in hollow capital letters. Below the circle sit a beach ball and a cookie with ten round chips. Three large round pictures make this an easy first shape page, and it suits children from about age 2 to age 5.

How this coloring page was created

For this page, we typed this idea into Colorin AI: "one big circle centered on the page with a wide white border around it, with the word CIRCLE in hollow capital letters above it and a small ball and a small round cookie below it, drawn with simple bold outlines for preschool and kindergarten, with the whole drawing kept above an empty white margin at the bottom of the page".

How to use it

In a preschool shapes lesson, children can run a finger around each circle and notice that the line never turns a corner. Rolling a real ball across the floor shows what a round shape can do, and snack time adds crackers and fruit slices to compare with the cookie.

At home, a toddler can fill the big circle with a crayon, and an older child can finish the six panels of the beach ball and the ten chips on the cookie. For a sheet of round foods, make a circle foods page.
