A generous slice of pizza 🍕 drawn with thick outlines and plenty of open space: cheese, tomato and rounds of salami on a wide triangle. The large shapes are forgiving for children aged roughly two to five, who are still learning to keep a pencil inside a line. Browns, reds and yellows do most of the work.

Where does pizza come from?
Pizza in its modern form is usually traced to Naples, in southern Italy, where flatbreads with a few cheap toppings were everyday food long before pizza travelled abroad. Exactly how and when it took its present shape is still argued over by food historians.
What kind of cheese goes on a pizza?
Mozzarella is the classic choice — a soft, mild cheese that melts into the stretchy threads people associate with a hot slice. Many pizzerias blend it with a harder cheese for flavour, so a finished slice ranges from pale cream to deep gold.
Why is pizza cut into triangles?
Cutting from the centre outwards is the quickest way to divide a round pie into equal shares, and every wedge ends up with both crust and topping. It also gives a piece that can be held in one hand — a practical habit rather than a rule.
