Activities to Do With Fall Coloring Pages
Don’t just color and toss them aside. You can turn these sheets into fun crafts and learning opportunities. Here are a few creative ways to use your finished masterpieces.
Create a Festive Leaf Garland
After your kids color the leaf-themed pages, have them carefully cut out the individual leaves. Punch a small hole in the top of each one and string them onto a piece of twine or yarn. You can hang this homemade garland across the mantelpiece or a classroom window to celebrate the season.
Make Thanksgiving Placemats
Have your children color their favorite autumn scene using their best markers or crayons. Once they are finished, run the pages through a laminator. These make durable, wipe-clean placemats that add a personal touch to the kids’ table at Thanksgiving dinner.
Host a Nature Scavenger Hunt
Take the coloring pages outside for an interactive adventure. Ask your child to find a real leaf in the yard that matches the shape of the one on the paper. Once they find a match, they can color that section of the page. This is a great way to combine art with outdoor exploration.
Design Custom Greeting Cards
Print the coloring pages at 50% scale or choose the “2 pages per sheet” option on your printer settings. Fold the paper in half to create a card. Your kids can color the front, and you can write a sweet note inside to send to grandparents or friends for a “Happy Fall” surprise.
Craft DIY Window Suncatchers
Color the pages using markers or crayons, pressing hard to get vibrant colors. Then, lightly rub a cotton ball dipped in baby oil over the back of the paper. The oil turns the paper translucent. Let it dry, cut out the shapes, and tape them to a sunny window to see the light shine through.
Build a 3D Forest Scene
Print the pages on heavy cardstock. Have your kids color the trees, owls, and pumpkins. Instead of leaving them flat, cut them out and tape a small cardboard stand (or toilet paper roll) to the back. You can arrange them on a table to create a standing autumn forest diorama.
FAQs
How Do I Print These Coloring Pages?
Click on the download link or the image itself to open the printable PDF file. Once the file is open, click the printer icon in the top right corner of your screen or select “Print” from your browser’s file menu. Ensure your printer has enough ink and paper loaded.
What Paper Is Best for Coloring Pages?
Standard printer paper works well for crayons and colored pencils. However, if you plan to use markers or watercolors, we recommend using cardstock or heavyweight paper. This prevents the ink from bleeding through to the other side or the paper from crinkling.
Are These Coloring Pages Free?
Yes, all the coloring pages in this collection are completely free for personal and educational use. You can print as many copies as you need for your family, classroom, or community group.
Can I Use These for a Classroom Activity?
Absolutely. Teachers love using these pages for art centers, quiet time, or as supplements to lessons about the seasons, nature, or holidays like Thanksgiving and Halloween. They are a great resource for preschool through elementary grades.
Why Do Leaves Change Color in the Fall?
This is a great question to answer while coloring. Leaves contain chlorophyll, which makes them green. As days get shorter and cooler in the fall, trees stop making food. The chlorophyll breaks down, revealing the yellow, orange, and red colors that were hidden underneath.
What Are Some Fun Facts About Autumn?
Autumn is one of the four temperate seasons. It marks the transition from summer to winter. In the Northern Hemisphere, it begins in September, while in the Southern Hemisphere, it starts in March. It is also the season when many animals, like squirrels and bears, prepare for hibernation.
