Activities to Do With Tiger Coloring Pages
Coloring is just the beginning. Extend the fun with these creative crafts and educational activities. They are perfect for rainy days or classroom projects.
1. Create a Tiger Mask
Turn a coloring page into a costume. Choose a face close-up page like “Easy Tiger Face.” Color it in with bold markers. Cut out the eyes carefully. Punch holes on the sides and tie a string or elastic band. Now your child can roar like a jungle cat.
2. Texture Art with Yarn
Add a sensory element to your art. Instead of just coloring, use orange and black yarn for the stripes. Glue pieces of yarn onto the tiger’s body. You can also use crinkled tissue paper for the jungle grass. This builds tactile skills and makes the image pop.
3. Jungle Diorama
Build a habitat for your tiger. Print the “Realistic Bengal Tiger” on cardstock. Color it and cut it out. Use a shoebox to create a jungle scene. Paint the inside green and add real twigs or leaves. Place the tiger cutout inside to give it a 3D home.
4. Tiger Fact Sheet
Combine art with science. Have your child color a page. On the back, help them write down three cool facts about tigers. For example, mention that they are excellent swimmers. This helps with handwriting and memory retention.
5. Popsicle Stick Puppets
Make characters for storytime. Color and cut out several tigers, including the “Cute Baby Tiger” and “Roaring Jungle King.” Glue them to popsicle sticks. Kids can put on a puppet show behind the sofa. They can invent stories about the tigers’ adventures in the wild.
6. Pin the Tail on the Tiger
This is a fun party game. Print the “Simple Tiger Outline” on a large sheet of paper (or draw a bigger version). Color the tiger but leave off the tail. Cut a tail shape out of construction paper. Blindfold the kids and see who can tape the tail in the right spot.
FAQs
What are the best colors to use for tiger coloring pages?
Standard tigers look great with bright orange, black, and white. However, encourage creativity. Kids can use gold, yellow, or even rainbow colors for a magical tiger. Don’t forget green for the jungle background and blue for any water.
Why do tigers have stripes?
Tigers have stripes for camouflage. The vertical lines help them blend into tall grass and trees. This makes it hard for other animals to see them. Interestingly, a tiger’s skin is also striped beneath the fur.
Where do tigers live in the wild?
Most tigers live in Asia. You can find them in countries like India, China, and Indonesia. They prefer diverse habitats like rainforests, grasslands, and even snowy mountains like the Siberian tiger.
Are there different types of tigers?
Yes, there are several subspecies. The Bengal tiger is the most common. Others include the Siberian tiger (the largest), the Sumatran tiger, and the Indochinese tiger. Sadly, some species like the Caspian tiger are now extinct.
Can I use paint on these coloring pages?
Absolutely. If you want to paint, print the pages on thicker paper or cardstock. Regular printer paper might curl when wet. Watercolors or acrylics work well for creating a vibrant jungle scene.
Are tigers the biggest cats?
Yes, tigers are the largest wild cats in the world. They are bigger than lions, leopards, and jaguars. A male Siberian tiger can weigh as much as 660 pounds.
