Activities to Do With Soccer Coloring Pages
Don’t let the fun stop once the coloring is done. You can use these sheets to create engaging games and crafts. Here are a few creative ideas to get you started.
Design Your Own Team Kit
Use the images of players or jerseys to design a brand-new team uniform. Kids can pick their own colors, create a team logo, and even draw sponsors on the shirts. This helps them express their unique style and identity.
Create Player Trading Cards
Print the coloring pages at a smaller size (four or six to a page). Once colored, glue them onto cardstock. On the back, have your child write stats like “Speed,” “Power,” and “Defense.” They can trade these custom cards with friends or siblings.
Soccer Party Bunting
Planning a World Cup watch party or a birthday bash? Color several soccer ball or trophy pages. Cut them out and tape them to a long piece of string or ribbon. Hang this DIY decoration across the room to set the mood for the big game.
Storytelling and Commentary
Ask your child to color a specific action scene, like the “Goalkeeper Jumping for a Save.” Once they finish, have them act as a sports commentator. They can describe the play, the crowd’s reaction, and the final score. This builds vocabulary and narrative skills.
Tactical Board Puzzle
Color the “Team Strategy Meeting” or field pages. Glue the page to a thin piece of cardboard (like a cereal box). Cut the image into puzzle pieces. Now your child has a custom jigsaw puzzle to solve on a rainy day.
Make a Fan Poster
Use the “Excited Soccer Crowd” or “Soccer Celebration” pages to make a poster for a real-life game. Color it in with your favorite team’s colors. Tape it to a popsicle stick to wave around while watching the match on TV.
FAQs
What Are the Benefits of Soccer Coloring Pages?
Coloring helps children develop fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination. It also allows them to express creativity while engaging with a sport they love. It can be a calming activity that improves focus and patience.
What Type of Paper Should I Use?
Standard printer paper works well for crayons and colored pencils. If your child prefers markers or watercolors, use cardstock or heavier bond paper. Thicker paper prevents the ink from bleeding through to the other side.
Can I Use These Pages for a Classroom Activity?
Yes, these coloring pages are excellent for classroom settings. Teachers can use them during recess on rainy days or as part of a physical education unit. They are also great for art classes focusing on movement and sports.
How Do I Print These Coloring Pages?

Are These Coloring Pages Suitable for Toddlers?
Many of the pages feature simple outlines, such as the “Soccer Ball on the Field” or “Soccer Trophy.” These are perfect for toddlers with developing motor skills. The more detailed scenes are better suited for older children.
How Can I Make the Coloring Pages Reusable?
You can laminate the printed pages or place them inside clear plastic sheet protectors. Give your child dry-erase markers to color the images. This allows them to wipe the sheet clean and color it again and again.
