How it works
Costa Rica bubble letters open stacked, Costa over Rica, on one sideways sheet in Fredoka. On two lines the name prints nearly twice as tall as on one, and the o, the R and both a's stay white inside.

Words for a rainforest project
After the first print, Costa Rica words in bubble letters opens. San José is the capital. Monteverde is a cloud forest reserve, and Arenal names a volcano park and the largest lake. Rainforest, Cloud / Forest, Sloth and Macaw head the nature pages: two kinds of sloth live here, and the scarlet macaw is a native bird.
Pura Vida, and five stripes to color
Pura / Vida, pure life, is the saying Costa Ricans are known for. To color the name the flag's way, print the outlines and stripe each letter from the top: blue, white, a red stripe twice as deep, white, blue.
- One letter per page, under More options, makes nine upright sheets: hang Costa's five over Rica's four.
Questions and answers
How do you draw Costa Rica in bubble letters?
Pencil Costa on one line and Rica under it, the R below the C. Draw a rounded line outside every stroke, leave a ring in the o, the R and each a, then erase the pencil.
What are the colors of the Costa Rican flag?
Blue, white and red, in five level stripes: blue on top, then white, a red stripe twice as wide in the middle, white, and blue at the bottom. The state flag adds the coat of arms; the everyday flag has none.
Can I print Costa Rica on one line?
Yes. Type Costa Rica in the box without pressing Enter. The name then runs across the sheet at a little over half the height, a strip to cut out and paste above a map.
