Activities to Do With Garden Coloring Pages
Don’t just let those colored pages collect dust in a drawer! Here are some creative ways to reuse your garden masterpieces for fun and learning.
Create DIY Garden Markers
Turn your coloring pages into functional art for your real garden. Have your kids color the vegetable or flower pages (like the carrots or sunflowers). Cut out the images, laminate them to make them waterproof, and glue them onto popsicle sticks. Stick them in the soil to label your plants!
Nature Scavenger Hunt
Use the detailed pages as a checklist for an outdoor adventure. Color the items you want to find, such as a butterfly, a bird’s nest, or a specific type of flower. Head to a local park or your backyard and try to find the real-life versions of the images you colored.
Texture Rubbing Backgrounds
Before you start coloring, place a textured item, like a leaf or tree bark, underneath the paper. Use a crayon to rub over the area gently. This creates a cool, natural texture on the page that mimics the outdoors. It adds a whole new layer of sensory play to the activity.
Make a Pop-Up Garden
Print several pages containing different elements like flowers, gnomes, and trees. Color them in and cut them out carefully. Glue them onto a folded piece of cardstock or a shoebox lid to create a 3D diorama. You can arrange them to create your own “dream garden” scene.
Storytelling Collages
Cut out the characters and animals from different sheets, like the fairy, the cat, and the squirrel. Paste them onto a large poster board to create a brand new scene. Have your child write or tell a story about how all these characters met in the magical garden.
Educational Plant Parts
Use the flower or vegetable pages for a science lesson. After coloring, help your child label the different parts of the plant, such as the roots, stem, leaves, and petals. It is a great way to combine creativity with biology.
