This is a coloring page of Yuri Gagarin the famous Russian astronaut who was the first person to fly into space. He was born in 1934 and grew up on a small farm. His family was very poor and suffered a lot becuase of the War. As a child Yuri loved learning about airplanes and dreamed of flying one day. He worked hard in school, especially in math and science, which helped him later in life.
In the army he became a pilot - one of the best pilots and that's why he was chosen for the space project. And he was brave enough to accept this offer. On April 12, 1961 Yuri flew into space aboard the spacecraft Vostok 1. His spaceflight lasted just 108 minutes, but it made history. Yuri became a hero all over the world and inspired millions of people. I hope this story will be interesting and useful for your kids. I've also added the name "Yuri Gagarin" to this page so that kids learn letters while coloring them.
