A colorful hot air balloon drifts across the sky in these Hot Air Balloon Coloring Pages. The round fabric envelope billows with air. Panels stretch from top to bottom in wide stripes.
A wicker basket hangs below on sturdy ropes. Some pages show balloons floating over mountains and fields. Others feature multiple balloons in the same sky.
Each design captures the peaceful feeling of floating through open air. These sheets make great long car ride entertainment.
Visual Context
The balloons appear at different heights and angles. Some float high near clouds. Others hover closer to the ground. The envelope takes up most of the space on each page.
Ropes connect the basket to the balloon above. Many pages include landscapes below like rivers, forests, and towns. Birds sometimes fly alongside the balloons.

Fun Fact: Hot air balloons were the first successful human flight machines, invented even before airplanes existed.
Scene Details
Most designs show the full balloon from front or side views. The envelope curves in a rounded teardrop shape. The basket sits at the bottom with passengers sometimes visible inside.
Some scenes place balloons over farmland with tiny cows and barns below. Others show balloons above city skylines or mountain ranges. A few designs include the burner flame heating the air inside.
Kids can pick rainbow colors for different balloon panels. Red, yellow, blue, and green work well together. Brown suits the wicker basket. Light blue fills the sky nicely.
