Sleepy Space Buddy Coloring Page

Meet the star of this Space Buddy coloring page: a cute big-eyed alien creature with a round head and a tiny antenna curled up fast asleep, peaceful smile, one eye scrunched shut, hands tucked under the chin. Kids can talk about the scene before they start, guess what happens next, then bring it to life with color. This free printable is ready to download and print at home or in the classroom, and works well for rainy-day play and weekend crafts. As they color, Ages 3–8 children develop fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination, pencil control, creativity, storytelling -- and along the way, they can learn three new words: planet, mission, astronaut. There is very little gravity in space, which is why astronauts appear to float.
