Free to print for personal and classroom use. This coloring page is part of the Owl collection, made for ages 5–7 and drawn in a Cartoon style. A good pick for Halloween.

🎨 How to color it

Color the owl warm tawny brown with golden eyes, the jack-o’-lantern bright orange, the crescent moon pale yellow, and the bats charcoal gray. Use chunky crayons or markers for the owl’s big belly feathers and the pumpkin sections, then save a sharper pencil for the tiny stars and claw tips. Try making the sky deep blue around the moon while leaving the owl’s eye spots bright, so its round stare pops.

The story behind this coloring page

Quibble’s Pumpkin Wink — Every evening, Quibble tapped his claws on the crooked branch and made up quiet games for falling leaves. Read the full story →

Every evening, Quibble tapped his claws on the crooked branch and made up quiet games for falling leaves. His newest was Pumpkin Wink: blink at the carved pumpkin, hoot “boo-boo,” then wait for it to blink back.

Until one night, the pumpkin did wink—because three giggling bats were hiding behind it. Because of that, Quibble hiccuped so loudly that a cloud curled like smoke. Because of THAT, the bats shouted, “Your turn!” and flapped around the moon.

Quibble’s feathers prickled, but he leaned close to the glowing pumpkin smell and gave one enormous wink. “Boo-boo!” The bats tumbled laughing from the branch, and the game belonged to him again. If you spot the pumpkin’s grin, dare it to wink first.
