16 Mummy Coloring Pages
Ancient Egyptians made mummies to preserve bodies for the afterlife, a process that took about 70 days and used salt called natron and long strips of linen. The most famous mummy, King Tutankhamun, was found in 1922 with treasures including a solid gold mask. In Halloween stories, mummies became friendly costume characters wrapped in bandages. This set keeps mummies cute and silly. A mummy dances, carries a lantern, holds a pumpkin bucket and a bunch of flowers, and plays detective with a magnifying glass. A baby mummy and two cute mummy pages are made for toddlers and preschoolers. Bandages look best in cream, pale tan or light gray with darker lines between the strips. Kids can add orange pumpkins, purple bats or a yellow moon around the mummy. For older kids, these pages can connect Halloween fun to a real history lesson about ancient Egypt and how archaeologists study the past.
Friendly mummies for little hands
Baby Mummy, Cute Mummy Character and Cute Mummy are easy pages with big round heads, sparkly eyes and wide bandage stripes. Each strip is its own space to color, so kids can keep it classic with cream and tan or try a rainbow of bandages. An orange knot, a pale green glow or purple shadows between the strips make each mummy feel more like Halloween.
A walking mummy and a wrap game
Mummy Walking is a medium page where curved stripes bend around moving arms and legs, which takes a steadier hand. Soft gray bandages with a few dusty smudges look ancient. For a party game, color the pages first, then split into teams and wrap one player in toilet paper like the pictures, racing to see which team finishes its mummy first.
