This circus coloring page from children's book author and illustrator, Melanie Hope Greenberg, is her latest contribution to our monthly series of free, printable coloring sheets. This summer city parade of clowns, elephants and ball-balancing seals will surely bring a few smiles.
Free Circus Parade Coloring Page
Summer is a fun time to take your kids to the circus, and many kids love heading under the circus tent for a good three-ring show. I'm rather partial to Cirque Nouveau with its focus on storytelling, but a good show is a good show. Before you head to see the clowns, print out Melanie's circus coloring page to get the kids in the spirit. I love how detailed it is, making it a good choice for kids who like to take their time.
