Birthday Party Hat Coloring Page

About this page

A tall cone-shaped party hat stands upright in the center, topped with a fluffy pom-pom with a scalloped outline. A diagonal band winds around the cone in a spiral, dividing it into stripes, and round dots of different sizes are placed between the bands. At the bottom of the hat a thick rim curves around the opening, drawn as a flat oval ring. The picture shows just the hat with no head, no table and no background, so it is all clean shape and bold line. The stripes are wide and the dots are big, which makes the hat simple to fill in using one color per section. It is an easy page for young children, particularly good as a quick warm-up at a birthday gathering or as a design-your-own-hat task.
