That’s a whole harvest on one wagon! This harvest festival coloring page shows a beautifully decorated wagon as two kids add the finishing touches. Print the free printable and bring it to life with bold fall colors.
Why Kids Love This Harvest Wagon
The wagon is stacked like a tower: big pumpkins and hay on the bottom, baskets of apples and ears of corn in the middle and a giant sunflower crowning the top between pennants. A boy climbs up hugging a pumpkin, a girl stands on the other side with an apple basket, and a little scarecrow peeks out behind her. A cat lounges on the wagon bed, and a bundle of grain leans by the spoked wheels. Leafy garlands drape across every level, and a blank banner up top is ready for your own words.

All About Harvest Festivals
A harvest festival is a celebration to give thanks for everything that grew in the fields and gardens. People around the world hold them in fall, and in the US, Thanksgiving has similar roots. In Germany, the festival called Erntedank usually falls on the first Sunday in October. Churches and town halls are decorated with pumpkins, apples, grain and veggies, and some villages hold parades with decorated wagons. Often a crown is woven from stalks of grain.
What to Do with Your Finished Wagon
Write a thank-you word or your class name on the blank banner and hang it up for fall. You could also press real autumn leaves and glue them around the wagon.
