Free Printable Egg Coloring Pages
Here are these free printable egg coloring pages that can be printed as PDFs on your computer. Each page will fit perfectly into US Letter size (8.5 × 11 inch) sheets of paper. Pick your favorite egg coloring page, then open up the file. Print the pages you’d like on plain printer paper and enjoy some fun this afternoon or during your next classroom food activity.
We love the simple outlines of eggs to make coloring easier for little ones but also have added detail with breakfast plates and cooking utensils to keep older kiddos interested. You could use regular paper to color on, but if you plan to cut out all those colored pictures, we suggest using cardstock instead!
4 Amazing Ways to Color an Egg
Put some of your go-to supplies out on the table so you can print an egg printable (click here) and get started with easy coloring activities at home or in class!
1. Give the Shells Some Speckles
Pick out the eggs from their carton.
Color in their shells with a light yellow or light brown crayon. Use the colored pencil to add some black or dark brown spots—don’t forget to leave some parts of the egg without spots so that they look slightly different than one another (just like the ones you see in your kitchen).
2. Build a Breakfast Plate
Let your kids color the fried egg’s yellow yolk. Encourage them to leave most of the white part of the egg alone for now. Once they’ve colored the egg, ask your little artist to draw some toast, berries, or other favorite foods on the paper that make the coloring sheet look like a real meal!
3. Dress Up an Egg Character
Grab your child’s favorite smiling egg character! You may even want to pick one with some rosy cheeks.
Then they can color the cracked shell design as they choose; maybe you’ll both love stripes, or maybe you’d rather go for spots or maybe they’re ready to get pretty fancy with some tiny flowers!
When the shell is complete, encourage your child to draw a paper crown above its head and write down their little friend’s name under its creation.
4. Add Texture to a Straw Nest
Use short pencil strokes in a variety of browns to color the straw on the nests and light shading to define the shells’ edges as well. You’ll love how this gives kids such an easy opportunity for playing with texture.
