Gingerbread Man with a Bow Tie Coloring Page
Wavy icing lines trim the arms and feet of this classic gingerbread man. He faces forward with both arms stretched out to the sides and his short legs set apart, and his face is just two solid black eyes and a curved smile. Below the chin sits a bow tie made of two pointed sides and a round knot, and three buttons line up down his middle.
Each version has 12 parts to color. The easy page uses thick lines for ages 3 to 5, and the standard page uses thin ones, suited to sharp pencils, for ages 6 to 8. A child can copy the colors of a real cookie or invent new ones. If the A4 or US Letter PDF is scaled down, the thin icing lines are the first to fade, so leave it at 100 percent.

A light or medium brown for the cookie, then bright colors for the bow tie and buttons. Red and green give him a holiday look.
