About this coloring page
A smiling alien stands with its arms out wide. It has a big round head, two antennae with round tips, large eyes with dark pupils and a happy grin. The body is a simple bell shape, and the stick arms end in three fingers each. Two sparkles twinkle beside it.
Large, open shapes and a friendly face make this one of the gentlest pages in the set. The antenna tips and the eyes are small enough to color carefully, while the head and body are wide spaces for loose, happy scribbling.
Color ideas
- Give the alien green, purple or even polka-dot skin on its head and body.
- Color the round antenna tips a glowing yellow or pink, as if they light up.
- Make the big eyes a surprising color, like orange or bright blue, around the dark pupils.

- Scientists searching for life beyond Earth are especially curious about Jupiter's moon Europa, which seems to have a salty ocean hidden under its icy crust.
- Stories about visitors from other planets go back a long time. The novel The War of the Worlds, about Martians landing on Earth, was published in 1898.
