  In this article we describe a canonical way to expand a certain kind of
$(\mathbb Z_2)^{n+1}$-colored regular graphs into closed $n$-manifolds by
adding cells determined by the edge-colorings inductively. We show that every
closed combinatorial $n$-manifold can be obtained in this way. When $n\leq 3$,
we give simple equivalent conditions for a colored graph to admit an expansion.
In addition, we show that if a $(\mathbb Z_2)^{n+1}$-colored regular graph
admits an $n$-skeletal expansion, then it is realizable as the moment graph of
an $(n+1)$-dimensional closed $(\mathbb Z_2)^{n+1}$-manifold.
