01About this page
This printable coloring page shows a cheerful young child standing under the bold heading “FIRST DAY AFTER SCHOOL.” The child is centered slightly to the left, smiling widely and waving one hand as if greeting a parent or caregiver at pickup time. A large bow headband sits over curly hair gathered high at the back, giving the face a playful, friendly look. The child wears a simple short-sleeve shirt, knee-length shorts, socks, and sneakers, with one backpack worn over the shoulder. A second backpack rests on the ground to the child’s right, featuring a front pocket, handle, straps, and a mesh side pocket. The composition is spacious and easy to follow, with big clothing areas, rounded facial features, and clear accessories for coloring. The plain background keeps attention on the first-day-after-school moment, while the two backpacks add a school theme without making the page busy. It is well suited for kids who enjoy coloring people, school gear, and happy back-to-school scenes.
A smiling child waves after school with backpacks nearby beneath a first day after school heading.

Coloring ideas
- Use bright colors for the bow headband to make the child’s face stand out.
- Color the two backpacks in different shades to separate the worn bag from the one on the ground.
- Add simple patterns or stripes to the shirt and shorts for extra creativity.
- Use a soft skin tone and rosy cheeks to emphasize the happy expression.
- Fill the sneakers and socks with clean contrasting colors for a finished look.
