Activities to Do With Sheep Coloring Pages

Make the most of your coloring time with these fun crafts and educational activities. They are great for preschool lessons or rainy day entertainment.

Cotton Ball Wool Art

Add some 3D texture to your coloring page. After your child colors the background and the sheep’s face, give them a handful of cotton balls and some liquid glue. Have them stretch the cotton slightly and glue it onto the sheep’s body. This creates a fluffy, realistic wool effect that kids love to touch.

Farmyard Stick Puppets

Turn the coloring pages into characters for a puppet show. Color the sheep and cut them out carefully with scissors. Tape a popsicle stick or a sturdy straw to the back of each cutout. Kids can use their new puppets to act out nursery rhymes like “Mary Had a Little Lamb” or “Baa, Baa, Black Sheep.”

Count the Sheep Mobile

This is a fun way to combine math with art. Print out several small sheep coloring pages. Once colored and cut out, punch a small hole at the top of each one. Tie them with yarn at varying lengths to a plastic coat hanger or a paper plate rim. Hang the mobile in a bedroom and practice counting the sheep before bedtime.

Sheep Mask

Choose a coloring page that features a large sheep face. Color it in, then carefully cut out the eyes so your child can see through them. Punch holes on the sides of the paper and attach a string or elastic band. Now your child can pretend to be a sheep and roam around the living room.

Grazing Sheep Diorama

Create a 3D farm scene using a shoebox. Color and cut out several sheep and maybe a shepherd. Leave a small tab at the bottom of the cutouts so you can fold it back and glue it down to make them stand up. Decorate the inside of the shoebox with green paper for grass and blue paper for the sky, then arrange your flock inside.

FAQs

What Do Sheep Eat?

Sheep are herbivores, which means they eat plants. Their favorite foods are grass, clover, and hay. Farmers may also feed them grains like corn or oats to help them stay healthy and grow strong wool.

What Is a Male Sheep Called?

A male sheep is called a ram. A female sheep is called a ewe, and a baby sheep is known as a lamb. If a male sheep has been neutered, it is called a wether.

Why Do Farmers Shear Sheep?

Domestic sheep grow wool continuously, much like human hair. Farmers shear them once a year, usually in spring, to keep the sheep cool during summer. If they aren’t sheared, the heavy wool can overheat them and trap dirt or pests.

Do All Sheep Have Wool?

Most sheep have wool, but not all of them. There are specific breeds called “hair sheep” that have hair similar to a dog’s coat instead of thick wool. These breeds naturally shed their hair and do not need to be sheared.

What Is the Best Way to Color These Pages?

Crayons and colored pencils are great for standard printer paper. If you want to use markers or watercolors, it is best to print the pages on cardstock or heavier paper to prevent the ink from bleeding through.

How Long Do Sheep Live?

On average, a healthy sheep lives for about 10 to 12 years. However, their lifespan can vary depending on their breed, diet, and environment. Some well-cared-for sheep have been known to live closer to 20 years.
