Festa Junina coloring pages

What are Festa Junina coloring pages?

They are drawings of Festa Junina, a traditional June festival in Brazil, made to print and color. This page has ten: festival stall, bonfire, pennant flags, paper balloon, scarecrow, straw hat, corn on the cob, accordion, popcorn and candy apple. Each one is a black outline only, with large closed areas, with or without a party background.

How to use it

1. Tap the name of the drawing you want. There are ten Festa Junina figures.
2. Choose with background (pennants, stars and confetti around it) or no background (just the figure, nice and big).
3. Choose full page or two per page. With two per page, the same drawing prints twice, with a cut line.
4. Tap Print the sheet. In the print window, keep the scale at 100% (or choose Fit to page on Letter paper).

Activity ideas

• Pennant garland: print the pennant flags, color each one a different color, cut them out and glue them to a string to decorate the room.
• Festival mural: each child colors one figure and the class builds the party on a big sheet of kraft paper, with the bonfire in the middle.
• Party invitation: print two per page, color, cut out and glue onto the front of a card with the day and time of the party.
• Pretend stall: color the popcorn, the candy apple and the corn, cut them out and use them as the prizes and treats of the game.
• Read and write: the figure's name is printed in outline letters at the top of the sheet. Color the letters and read the word together.

Printing tips

• The drawing is outline only, with no filled areas. It uses little ink, even on a home printer.
• Print in black and white. Draft mode already gives lines that are good to color.
• To cut out and hang, use thicker paper, such as card stock.
• For a class, use two per page: half the paper for the same number of children.

About Festa Junina

Festa Junina is a popular festival held in Brazil in June. It celebrates Saint Anthony, Saint John and Saint Peter with a country dance called quadrilha, bonfires, pennant flags and food made from corn. In many places the parties go on into July, so the sheets carry no date.

The balloon in the drawing is a paper balloon used as a decoration. Releasing fire balloons is banned in Brazil because they can start fires.
