6 fun facts about the goose
A baby goose is called a gosling. Goslings can walk, swim and find food within a few hours of hatching.
Geese fly in a V so the birds behind can ride the air from the ones in front, which saves energy.
Most geese pick one partner and stay with them for life.
A group of geese on the ground is called a gaggle. In the air, the same group is called a skein.
Geese honk while they fly so the flock can stay together and take turns at the front of the V.
Canada geese can travel more than 1,000 miles on migration, flying hundreds of miles in a single day.
About the goose coloring page
Geese are large water birds that live on farms, parks, lakes and wetlands across much of the world. Children usually meet them as the white farm goose with an orange bill, or as the Canada goose with its black head, white chinstrap and brown body, grazing on a school field. They have a longer neck than a duck, webbed feet for swimming, and a loud honk that carries across a pond.
Colour depends on the kind. A farm Embden goose is white with an orange bill and feet. A Canada goose has a black head and neck, a white patch on the cheek, a brown back and a pale belly. A greylag goose is mottled grey-brown with a pinkish-orange bill. There is no single right goose colour, so children can copy a real bird or invent a rainbow one. Point out the bill and the webbed feet, which stay orange or black on almost every goose, and the pale belly that is often lighter than the back.
The eight designs run from easiest to hardest. The sitting goose comes first — thick outlines, a huge empty body and a simple folded wing, right for toddlers. Then a cute standing goose with its head tilted and a big smile, and a sleeping goose with its beak tucked into its wing. A goose looking back over its shoulder sits in the middle, still simple. After that the detail climbs: a goose walking in profile with one webbed foot lifted, a honking goose with its beak wide open, a goose preening with its long neck curved into its feathers, and finally a goose with both wings fully spread, every flight feather a separate shape for children who like a long, careful project.
Every sheet prints on landscape US Letter paper at 200 DPI, so the goose fills the page without being cut off. Plain copier paper is fine for crayons and colored pencils. Use slightly thicker card stock for markers or paint on the last two designs, where the narrow gaps between flight feathers can bleed shut on thin paper.
In the classroom these pages pair well with a lesson on farm animals, on pond life, on migration and how birds fly in a V, or on the letter G. The sitting goose is a calm, quick sheet; the honking goose makes a cheerful display; the wings-spread page can fill a whole afternoon. Print a few different designs and let each child pick the one that matches their patience that day.
