These five spring coloring pages are all flowers, lettering and garden scenes. The first shows two giant smiling flowers towering over a small cottage on a hill, with more flowers and grass along a winding path. The second has bubble lettering reading 'Hello Spring' above two butterflies, tulips, daisies and leafy stems inside a frame. The third is a bicycle with a basket full of flowers leaning by a picket fence, under script 'hello spring' lettering and clouds. The fourth is the saying 'April showers bring May flowers' in block letters, surrounded by a dense border of daisies and small flowers. The fifth is a pot of mixed flowers, including a tall sunflower, standing in front of a wooden fence.

Two of the pages are mostly lettering, which suits children in grades 1 and 2 who can color letters neatly and read the words. The cottage, bicycle and flower pot scenes suit preschool and kindergarten.

How to use these coloring pages

Print at 100% on A4 or US Letter, one page per sheet of paper. Every page is black outlines on white, so a black cartridge is all you need. Copier paper is fine for crayons and colored pencils. Use cardstock if your child works in marker or paint, because thin paper buckles and bleeds. Print two copies of a favorite so a spoiled page is not a disaster.

  • Smiling flowers by a cottage. The best first page for a preschooler, since the two giant flowers are big open shapes. Ask for petals in one color and leaves in another, then let the path and the hill be any color at all.
  • Hello Spring butterflies and tulips. Read the bubble letters together before anyone picks up a pencil. A good rule for grades 1 and 2: every letter gets a different color and the two butterflies match each other.
  • Bicycle with a flower basket. Thin parts everywhere, the frame, the spokes and the fence pickets, so hand over a sharp colored pencil rather than a crayon. Save the basket of flowers for last as the reward.
  • April showers bring May flowers. Use this in April. Read the saying, talk about what it means, then color the block letters first and the daisy border afterwards, because the border is slow work.
  • Flower pot by the garden fence. Good for color matching: find a real sunflower or a photo and copy the yellows and browns. The wooden fence is a chance to try brown twice, light boards and darker gaps.

Making it a lesson

  • Name the parts. Point out the petals, stem, leaves and the pot of soil before coloring starts. Five minutes of naming turns a coloring page into a first plant lesson.
  • Read the words. Two pages are mostly lettering. Have the child read Hello Spring and April showers bring May flowers aloud, then ask what the saying promises.
  • Say the colors. Ask for the color name out loud as each pencil is picked up. It ties color words to something the child is already looking at.
  • Write and display. Older children can add a sentence under the picture: where the bicycle is going, or what the garden smells like. Tape the finished pages along a window and date the backs.

Frequently asked questions

What ages are these spring pages for?

Preschool to grade 2, roughly ages 3 to 8. The cottage, bicycle and flower pot scenes suit preschool and kindergarten. The two lettering pages suit grades 1 and 2, where children can color letters neatly and read the words.

Do I need color ink to print them?

No. All five pages are black line art on a white background, so a black cartridge is enough. The coloring is the point, so nothing arrives pre colored.

What paper should I use?

Plain copier paper for crayons and colored pencils. Cardstock or a heavier stock if your child uses markers, paint or gel pens, since thin paper wrinkles and the ink shows through the back.

Can I print these for a class or a party?

Yes, at no cost. Print a class set, a homeschool set, or a stack for a spring party table. Please link to this page rather than rehosting the PDF files.

What can we do with the finished pages?

Make a window display, glue them to card as a spring greeting, or keep one a year in a folder to see how coloring control improves.
