Activities to Do With Ballerina Coloring Pages
Don’t let the fun stop once the coloring is done. These printable pages can be the starting point for a whole afternoon of creative play. Here are a few ways to bring these dancers to life.
Create a Ballet Storybook
Print out 5 to 10 different pages and color them in. Once finished, help your child staple them together along the left edge. Have your child narrate a story about the dancers while you write the words at the bottom of each page. It is a wonderful keepsake that encourages literacy and storytelling.
Design 3D Paper Dolls
Print the ballerinas on heavy cardstock instead of regular paper. After coloring, cut the figures out carefully. Glue a popsicle stick to the back of each one to turn them into stick puppets. Now your child can put on a puppet show behind the sofa.
Make Glittery Wall Art
Turn a favorite coloring page into room decor. After coloring with markers or crayons, use liquid glue to outline the tutu or the tiara. Sprinkle loose glitter over the glue and shake off the excess. Frame the sparkling masterpiece and hang it in your child’s bedroom.
DIY Ballet Party Invitations
If you are planning a birthday party, use the smaller images as invitation covers. Print 2 or 4 pages per sheet to scale them down. Fold a piece of construction paper in half, paste the colored ballerina on the front, and write the party details inside.
Fashion Designer Challenge
Use the simpler outlines to let kids practice fashion design. Instead of just coloring, glue scraps of tulle, fabric, or lace onto the paper to create a “real” tutu. This adds a fun sensory element and helps develop fine motor skills.
FAQs
What Are the Benefits of Coloring for Kids?
Coloring helps improve fine motor skills, hand-eye coordination, and focus. It is also a relaxing activity that allows children to express emotions and creativity without the pressure of drawing from scratch.
What Is the Best Paper for Printing Coloring Pages?
Standard printer paper (20lb) works well for crayons and colored pencils. However, if your child prefers markers or watercolors, we recommend using cardstock or heavyweight paper (65lb or higher) to prevent bleed-through.
Can Adults Color These Pages Too?
Absolutely. Many of our designs feature intricate details like floral backgrounds and mandalas that are perfect for adult stress relief. Art therapy is beneficial for all ages.
How Can I Make the Tutus Look Real?
To give the tutus a realistic sheer look, try using soft pastel crayons or watercolor pencils. Lightly shade the skirt area and use a white gel pen to add highlights or “sparkles” over the color.
Are These Coloring Pages Free to Use?
Yes, all the coloring pages on Mom Loves Best are completely free for personal and educational use. Feel free to print as many copies as you need for your home, classroom, or party.
