Telescope Looking at Stars Coloring Page

Have fun coloring this Telescope Looking at Stars page while you imagine the night sky. The big telescope and smiling kid invite curious stories about planets, comets, and constellations. Talk about how telescopes help us see farther than our eyes can, and try naming some bright stars or simple constellations as you color them. In the classroom, use this printable as a center activity where children color, then cut out and label a star map, or hang finished pages on a space themed bulletin board. At home, it makes a great rainy day project, and families can turn it into a mini lesson by reading a short book about the moon after coloring. For a creative extension, try pairing the coloring page with a craft telescope made from a paper towel roll, or ask kids to write a short imaginative story about what they would discover through the lens. This free printable is playful and practical, and it sparks questions while providing a colorful way to introduce basic astronomy ideas and observational thinking.
