10 Easter Coloring Pages

Easter falls on a Sunday between late March and late April, and in many homes it is a spring celebration of eggs, baby animals and flowers. This collection gathers those cheerful symbols. A bunny paints a row of eggs, a chick pokes out of a cracked shell, a line of ducklings waddles along, and a lamb stands in the grass. There is an Easter basket, an egg hunt, a wheelbarrow loaded with eggs and a page with spring flowers tucked around a pile of eggs. Pastel shades like lavender, mint, butter yellow and baby blue fit the season, but bright colors work just as well. The egg hunt and wheelbarrow scenes make good warm-ups before a real hunt, and kids can even count the eggs they color. Real ducklings and chicks are covered in soft down for their first weeks before growing proper feathers, so a fuzzy yellow is accurate. The single chick and egg pages have large spaces for toddlers, and the hunt scene suits early elementary kids.
