About this picture
Vertical panels run down the balloon's envelope, giving several long stripes to color separately from the woven basket hanging below. A small bird glides past in the distance while rolling, bush-covered hills stretch out beneath the balloon. With no rider or face on the balloon itself, this page leans more scenic than character-driven, closer to a landscape than the other vehicles in this collection.

Coloring ideas
- Color each of the balloon's vertical panels a different bright color for a classic striped hot air balloon look.
- Give the woven basket a warm tan or brown, with slightly darker shading in the crisscross pattern.
- Color the rolling hills below in two shades of green so the nearer hill stands out from the one behind it.
- Use soft grays or light blues for the clouds so they don't compete with the colorful balloon.
Learning and creativity connection
Coloring each panel of the balloon separately, rather than the whole balloon in one color, is a fun way to practice planning ahead and keeping a repeating pattern consistent all the way around a curved shape.
