Activities to Do With Donut Coloring Pages
Don’t just color these pages and toss them in a drawer. You can turn these printables into interactive games and decorations. Here are a few creative ideas to try.
Create a Donut Garland
Print several copies of the simple donut pages. Have your kids color them in bright, neon colors. Cut the donuts out carefully and tape them to a long piece of yarn or ribbon. Hang this sweet banner across the mantle or use it to decorate for a birthday party.
DIY Donut Shop
Set up a pretend bakery in your living room. Color the donuts, cut them out, and glue them onto sturdy cardboard or paper plates. Use play money to “sell” the donuts to family members. This helps kids practice counting and social skills while playing.
Design Your Own Flavor
Use the simpler outlines to host a design competition. Ask your kids to invent a new flavor, such as “Spicy Chocolate” or “Bubblegum Surprise.” They can draw specific ingredients on top of the coloring page to represent their unique recipe.
3D Texture Art
Make the coloring pages pop by adding real textures. Once the base is colored, use glitter glue for the icing. You can also glue real cake sprinkles, small buttons, or pom-poms onto the paper to make the donuts look realistic and 3D.
Donut Memory Game
Select 4 to 6 different donut designs and print two copies of each (scaled down to card size). Color the matching pairs identically. Glue them to thick cardstock and cut them out. Flip them over and play a classic game of memory match.
Custom Birthday Cards
Fold a piece of construction paper in half to make a card. Color a donut, cut it out, and glue it to the front. Write a punny message like “I donut know what I’d do without you” or “Hope your birthday is sweet.” It creates a thoughtful, handmade gift.
FAQs
What Is the Best Paper for Coloring Donuts?
For standard crayons or colored pencils, regular printer paper works fine. However, if you plan to use markers or watercolor paints to make the icing pop, we recommend using cardstock or heavy mixed-media paper to prevent bleed-through.
How Can I Make the Glaze Look Realistic?
To get that shiny glaze effect, leave small white shapes or lines on the curved parts of the icing to represent light reflection. You can also use a white gel pen over your colored markers to add highlights after the ink dries.
Are These Coloring Pages Free to Use?
Yes, these pages are free for personal, non-commercial use. They are perfect for rainy days at home, classroom activities, or library craft groups.
What Are Some Fun Facts About Donuts?
Donuts have an interesting history. They were originally called “oily cakes,” and the hole was likely invented to help the dough cook evenly. Also, over 10 billion donuts are made in the U.S. every single year.
Can I Use These Pages for a Party?
Absolutely. These printables make excellent party favors or activity stations for a donut-themed birthday. You can set up a table with crayons and let the guests design their own treats while they wait for cake.
