Guide: colouring pages in the early years and Key Stage 1

Colouring is much more than filling in spaces: children learn to hold a pencil well, to control their strokes and stay inside the lines, to choose colours and to concentrate for a good while. This free colouring pages generator makes new A4 sheets every time for ages 3 to 7: mandalas, stained glass and geometric mosaics, and scenes of the farm, the sea, the garden, space, the town and the savannah, with our own line drawings.

Mandalas that never repeat

Every mandala is built at random around its centre from rings of petals, dots, diamonds, leaves, arches and zigzags repeated 6 to 40 times. You will never print the same one twice: ideal for a calm moment after playtime.

Stained glass, tiles and waves

Geometric shapes take turns between three kinds of sheet: an arched stained glass window cut into panes, a mosaic of squares, hexagons or triangles with a motif inside each tile, and a grid of waves. Every piece is closed.

Scenes with a landscape

Farm, sea, garden, space, town and savannah: the animals and objects are placed on a simple background (hills, the sea bed, the surface of a planet) without touching, with the sun, clouds and flowers, stones or bubbles in the spaces left.

Made for each age

At age 3, a few very large spaces and thick lines (no space is less than 1.2 cm across); at ages 4 and 5, more details; in Years 1 and 2 (Grades 1-2), many small spaces and fine lines. Pictures are drawn smaller or larger as far as their details allow.

Title in outline letters

Scenes have their title (THE FARM, THE SEA…) in outline letters to colour. If you do not want it, untick it in More options.

What it is for

Fine motor skills, calming down, learning colours or free time in class or at home. Print as many sheets as you like: every one is different.

Frequently Asked Questions about the Colouring Pages

Are the colouring pages free?
Yes. Choose the theme and the age, and print as many sheets as you like. Every sheet is drawn anew, so you can make one for each child without two being the same.
Which ages are they for?
Ages 3 to 7, from preschool to Year 2 (Grade 2). The age sets how thick the lines are and how big the spaces are: few and large for the youngest, small and many for older children.
Are the pictures copyrighted characters?
No. There are no cartoon characters or copied pictures: the animals and objects are LearnKits' own line drawings, and the mandalas and shapes are generated for every sheet.
Is there an answer key?
No: these are free colouring pages. To colour by a code, try colour by number or the basic shapes worksheets.
Can I print them in black and white?
Yes. They are black lines on white with no grey fills, made for any printer and to save ink.
Are there other art and fine motor worksheets?
Yes: pre-writing tracing, dot-to-dot, symmetry and grid drawing. You can add them to the same worksheet.
