Activities to Do With Music Coloring Pages
Music and art go hand in hand. Once your children finish coloring their favorite instruments, try these fun activities to keep the learning and creativity flowing.
Design a Concert Poster
Turn a coloring page into a promotional poster for a pretend concert. Have your child color the “Audition Day” or “Guitar Solo” page, then glue it onto a larger piece of construction paper. They can add details like the band name, showtime, and ticket price using glitter glue or markers.
Musical Instrument Scavenger Hunt
Color several different instrument pages and hide them around the living room or classroom. Challenge your kids to find specific instruments. For example, ask them to “Find the instrument that has strings” or “Hunt for the one you blow into.” This builds observation skills and instrument recognition.
Create a Musical Storyboard
Print out three or four different scenes, such as the “Violin Player,” “Opera at the Theater,” and “Street Musician.” Ask your child to arrange them in an order that tells a story. They can narrate the journey of a musician traveling from the practice room to the big stage.
Listen and Color
Play real recordings of the instruments featured on the pages. While your child colors the saxophone page, play some smooth jazz. When they switch to the violin page, play a classical concerto. Connecting the sound to the image helps reinforce their memory of the instrument.
Make a DIY Music Book
After coloring their favorite pages, hole-punch the sides and bind them together with yarn or ribbon. Create a cover page titled “My Book of Instruments.” This creates a personalized keepsake they can read again and again to learn the names of different musical tools.
FAQs
What are the benefits of coloring music pages?
Coloring helps children develop fine motor skills, focus, and creativity. When combined with music themes, it also introduces them to different instruments, musical notation, and performance settings in a stress-free way.
How can I print these coloring pages?
Simply scroll to the image you want to use and click the “Download” or “Print” button associated with that image. For the best results, use standard letter-sized paper and ensure your printer settings are set to “Fit to Page.”
Are these pages suitable for toddlers?
Yes, many of the designs feature large, simple outlines that are perfect for toddlers and preschoolers. Pages like “Xylophone Fun” or “Drummer at the Parade” have easy-to-color shapes, while older children might enjoy the detailed backgrounds in the “Fantasy Harp” scenes.
Can I use markers or paint on these pages?
You can use crayons, colored pencils, markers, or even watercolors. If you plan to use wet media like paint or heavy markers, we recommend printing on cardstock or thicker paper to prevent bleeding through the page.
Do these coloring pages teach music theory?
While they are primarily for fun and artistic expression, some pages feature musical notes, clefs, and staff lines. You can use these visual elements to start a conversation about how music is written and read.
Can teachers use these for classroom activities?
Absolutely. These pages are excellent resources for music teachers or general educators. They work well for quiet time activities, reward stations, or as a supplement to a lesson on orchestra instruments or musical genres.
