Easter coloring pages are one of those simple things that just make people happy. Kids like them, adults like them too (even if they don’t say it out loud). You can print a few, put out crayons or markers, and boom… you got an easy Easter activity with almost no prep.
Easter coloring pages: 29 ideas you can print and color
Below are 29 Easter coloring ideas based on the kind of designs you shared (big decorated eggs, baskets, cute animals, spring flowers, and also faith-based Easter art). I’m writing these like a real list you can actually use, not fancy, not complicated.
Easy tips to make Easter coloring pages more fun
Pick a small color plan
If you use every color you own, it can look wild (sometimes that’s fine!). But if you choose 3–5 colors, your Easter coloring pages will look more “together.”
Try one “special” tool
You don’t need fancy supplies. But one new thing can feel exciting:
- glitter gel pen for the eggs
- highlighter for background
- cotton ball dabbed in paint for clouds (if you’re brave)
Give kids a silly challenge
Like: “Use only warm colors,” or “Make the egg look like a watermelon,” or “Color the basket like it’s made of rainbow.” It sounds goofy, but kids get super into it.
Printing notes for your Easter coloring pages
Once opened, you will then be able to find more pages that are all free to download and print! Also, these are PDF coloring pages on standard US letter size, but they also fit perfectly onto A4 paper sizes. That’s honestly helpful because people print from different countries and it’s annoying when it crops weird.
If you want cleaner lines: set printer to “best” quality. If you want to save ink: use “draft.” Either way works.
