Oops – somebody grabbed a few too many streamers! On this streamer coloring page, a kid is wrapped from head to toe and laughing out loud. A silly New Year's Eve printable you can download for free.
Why this mess is so much fun
The kid has messy hair, a big open-mouthed grin and both fists raised high. Dozens of streamers loop around the arms, tummy and legs in every direction, and long curls dangle from the hands. More streamers lie in swirls on the floor. Color each streamer a different shade and you get a wonderfully colorful mess.

How do party streamers work?
Party streamers like these are long, thin strips of colored paper tightly wound into a little roll. Blow hard into the middle or toss it, and the strip unrolls and flies through the air. Afterward the strip stays a bit curly – in Germany they're even called “air snakes.” Streamers aren't just for New Year's Eve; they show up at carnival and birthday parties too. Since they're made of paper, they go in the paper recycling after the party.
Ideas with the streamer picture
