Tow Truck Lifting a Small Car

This coloring page shows a friendly tow truck lifting a small car. The tow truck has a smiling face with two big eyes on the front and two warning lights on its roof. At the back, a lifting arm is raised and holds the front wheels of the little car off the ground, while its rear wheels still rest on the road.

What can you see?

Both vehicles are drawn from the side with clear lines and large areas. You can spot the cab, the doors, the windows and the wheels with round hubcaps. The strong crane arm connects the tow truck to the little car. It is easy to understand how a broken-down vehicle is safely taken away without getting damaged.

Ideas for coloring

• The big tow truck in a bold color
• The small car in a light, friendly shade
• The warning lights in a bright tone
• The tires dark and the hubcaps a little lighter

Who is this motif for?

The areas are medium sized, with a few finer lines on the crane arm and the wheels. That makes the picture a good fit for children from about five years who already enjoy coloring with more care. Younger children can fill in the big parts first and slowly move on to the details later.

Why do you think the tow truck lifts only the front wheels?

A tow truck helps when a car can no longer drive, for example after a breakdown or a small crash. It brings the car to the garage, where it is repaired in peace. Because the friendly face makes the truck look like a little helper, a breakdown loses its scary feeling. Feel free to add a road, a few houses or some clouds so a lively little rescue scene appears on the page.
