Easter Coloring Pages

Three crosses stand on a rounded hilltop, the tallest in the middle, with wide rays of light spreading behind them. Warm brown suits the wood and soft green the hill, with gold and pale apricot in the rays. Keep the sky white so the light beams stay bright.

One oversized Easter egg sits in the middle of the page, split into three bands by bold zigzag lines. Try robins-egg blue on top, sunny yellow in the middle, and a soft coral pink at the bottom. Kids can add dots or stripes of their own inside each band.

A round-cheeked bunny looks straight ahead with tall ears up and a fat bow tied under its chin. Soft dove gray works well for the face and ears, with rose pink inside the ears and a bright turquoise bow. Leave a white dot in each eye so the shine stays.

A baby chick breaks out of its shell with the top half still sitting on its head like a hat. Sunny yellow suits the chick, with warm orange for the beak and feet and a soft cream shell. Add a light gray shadow along the cracked edges to make the shell look thick.

Three round eggs sit tucked inside a woven basket with a big ribbon bow tied to the handle. Warm tan suits the basket, with a lilac bow and three eggs in mint green, buttercup yellow, and coral. Color the basket stripes in alternating shades to suggest woven reeds.

A chubby bunny sits upright and wraps both paws around an egg almost as big as its belly. Try warm gray for the bunny with pink inner ears, then split the egg into bands of sky blue, cream, and buttercup yellow. The wavy bands are wide, so crayons work fine here.

A round chick stands with its beak open in a cheep, next to a single tulip on a long stem. Sunny yellow suits the chick, orange for the beak and feet, and a deep pink tulip on a green stem. Add a lighter yellow along the wing edges so they lift off the body.

A bunny sits in profile with a big carrot held against its chest, one bright eye looking straight out. Soft dove gray suits the fur with pink inside the ear, and the carrot takes warm orange with a leafy green top. Add short gray strokes on the haunch for a fur texture.

One big egg doubles as a bunny, with two tall ears sprouting from the top and a face drawn on the shell. Soft cream works for the egg with rose pink inside the ears and a matching pink nose. Keep the eyes dark with a white dot left blank for the shine.

Two eggs lean against each other with a single ribbon bow tied across the front. Give the striped egg alternating bands of lilac and cream, and fill the spotted one in mint green with coral dots. A turquoise bow ties the pair together without matching either egg.

A little lamb stands in profile with a cloud-shaped woolly coat and a ribbon bow tied at its neck. Keep the wool a soft cream with warm gray shadows in the curves, then use tan for the face and legs. A powder blue bow gives the page one clear point of color.

The Easter Bunny stands with a paw on its round belly beside a woven basket stacked with six patterned eggs. Warm gray suits the bunny with pink inner ears, and the basket takes honey tan. Give each egg a different color so the zigzags, stripes, and dots all stand apart.

A bunny crouches low in the grass with one paw on an egg, four more hidden in the tufts around it. Warm gray suits the bunny, spring green the grass, and each egg can take its own shade from coral to sky blue. A picket fence and leafy bushes fill the background.

A bunny holds a paintbrush to a tall egg balanced on a wooden stool, paint pot open at its feet. Warm gray suits the bunny and honey brown the stool, while the egg can carry a zigzag band in coral, two circles in blue, and waves in green. Match the paint pot to one band.

Three baby chicks sit shoulder to shoulder in a woven basket with three eggs tucked in beside them. Sunny yellow suits all three chicks with orange beaks, and honey tan handles the basket weave. A lilac bow on the handle keeps the top of the page from going flat.

One tall egg carries four bands of pattern, daisies at the top and leaves at the bottom, with two flowers growing at its base. Try lilac daisies, coral dots, and turquoise waves against a cream shell. Keep the base flowers a different pink so they read as separate from the egg.

A sitting bunny stretches out a paw and a small chick perches on it, three plain eggs lined up below. Soft gray suits the bunny with a pink belly and inner ears, and sunny yellow for the chick. Give each egg its own color so the bottom row does not look repetitive.

A wooden cross stands draped with a length of cloth, three Easter lilies opening at its base. Warm brown suits the cross with a soft ivory drape, and the lilies stay white with pale gold stamens. Use several greens across the long leaves so the spray does not read as one block.

A woven basket packed with four patterned eggs sits on a stone step, a potted tulip standing guard beside it. Give the stones a range of cool grays, the basket honey tan, and the tulip a deep rose bloom. Vary each egg pattern in its own color so the basket stays lively.

A bunny stretches full length in mid air above a low picket fence, ears back and legs extended. Soft gray works for the fur with a white puff tail, and the fence takes a warm cream with tan rails. Two tufts of spring green grass anchor the bottom corners.

Six eggs hang from the bare branches of a small potted tree, each tied on with its own little bow. Warm brown suits the branches and terracotta the pot, then give every egg a different shade so no two neighbors match. Keep the bows one color to tie it together.

A grinning duckling wears a wide brimmed bonnet trimmed with a row of flowers and a trailing ribbon. Sunny yellow suits the duckling with an orange bill and feet, then pick two or three shades for the hat flowers. Soft blue clouds and pink garden blooms fill the space around it.

An egg shape filled with concentric mandala rings, a six petal flower at its heart and teardrops rippling out to a beaded border. Pick two or three colors and repeat them ring by ring so the symmetry shows. Work outward from the center to keep the pattern balanced.

Five patterned eggs sit among open blossoms, berries and layered leaves in a thick circular wreath. Try blush pink and cream for the flowers, several greens across the leaves, and a different shade for each egg. The open center is meant to stay white, which makes the ring pop.

A bunny sits in profile with its body carved into panels, each filled with a different zentangle pattern. Honeycomb, chevrons, triangles, rounded squares and scales all want their own color family. Keep neighboring panels in contrasting shades so every pattern stays readable.

A stone tomb stands open with its round door rolled aside, the sun rising in long rays behind it. Warm sandstone shades suit the blockwork, with white lilies and layered greens filling the foreground. Try a gradient of gold and apricot across the sun rays for the dawn light.

Seven eggs, each with its own pattern, sit in a basket covered in latticework and rosettes. Give every egg a distinct color so the waves, dots, zigzags and flowers stay apart. Keep the basket in two tones of tan so the ornate weave reads without competing with the eggs.

A bunny sits upright in profile, drawn with just a few clean lines and no background at all. Soft dove gray suits the body with a pink inner ear and nose, and a white circle for the tail. With so few areas, this is a good page for trying out a blended shade.

A single egg outline sits alone on the page with nothing inside it, no bands and no pattern. Pick any three colors that work together, say turquoise, coral, and buttercup, and build stripes or spots from there. It also makes a good template to cut out and hang on a branch.

A round little chick stands on two thin legs beside an egg almost its own size. Sunny yellow works for the chick with an orange beak and feet, and the plain egg can take any color your child likes. There is loads of white space here, which makes it a relaxed first page.

A wide open basket sits waiting with a small bow tied to one side of its tall handle. Warm tan suits the basket with a deeper shade for the middle band, and the bow can be any bright color at all. The open interior is the perfect spot to draw in your own eggs.

A bunny head with two tall ears pops up out of a cracked eggshell, smiling straight ahead. Soft gray suits the bunny with rose pink inner ears, and the shell below can take mint green or any color you fancy. Add a gray line along the zigzag crack so the shell looks thick.

Three tulips stand in a neat row, each on a straight stem with a single curved leaf beside it. Try one bloom in deep pink, one in buttercup yellow, and one in coral so the row has some rhythm. Keep all three stems and leaves the same green to hold the group together.

A round bunny stands facing forward in a neat bow tie, ears pointing straight up. Soft gray works for the fur with a cream belly patch and rose pink nose, then pick a strong color for the tie so it holds the center. Two oval feet finish the pose at the bottom.

One fat carrot leans diagonally across the page with three broad leaves fanning out from its top. Warm orange handles the root, with a deeper amber traced along the three ridge lines and leafy green up top. It is a good page for practicing a light to dark blend.

A big round chick fills the page with an oversized ribbon bow tied across its middle. Sunny yellow suits the body with an orange beak and feet, and a coral or lilac bow gives the page its contrast. Leave the small white dot in each eye so the chick looks bright eyed.

A bunny in overalls and a bow tie walks along pulling a wooden wagon stacked with six eggs. Denim blue suits the overalls against soft gray fur, and the wagon can go barn red with dark wheels. Give the six eggs different pastels so the load looks like a proper delivery.

A round cottage shaped like an egg wears a scalloped thatch roof with two bunny ears poking out of the top. Warm cream suits the walls, honey brown the thatch, and rose pink the ears, with five bright flowers in the beds out front. Stepping stones lead right up to the door.

A girl stands in the garden wearing a bunny ear headband, holding a woven basket with three patterned eggs. A soft yellow dress and honey brown hair suit her, with a tan basket and pastel eggs. Flowering bushes and tufts of grass fill the space on either side.

A boy waves with one hand while carrying a woven basket holding three decorated eggs. Try a mint green shirt, denim shorts, and warm brown hair, with a tan basket and pastel eggs. Two flowering bushes and grass tufts frame him on both sides of the garden.

Two hands pressed palm to palm rise in front of a plain cross, eight beams of light radiating out around them. Soft peach suits the hands with cream sleeves and folded cuffs, and warm brown for the cross. Gold beams behind keep the page from feeling empty.

A dove flies across the front of a plain cross with an olive branch held in its beak. Keep the bird nearly white with soft gray shading between the wing feathers, and use warm brown for the cross. Give the olive leaves two greens so the branch has some depth.

A bunny sits on top of a tall swirl of frosting piled into a pleated cupcake wrapper. Pale mint frosting works nicely against a coral striped wrapper, with soft gray for the bunny. Four little flowers and two wavy eggs float around the edges of the page.

Five patterned eggs fill a woven basket with a thick rope handle, a blossom branch arching overhead. Try blush pink petals with gold stamens, honey tan for the weave, and a different shade for each egg. Keep the branch brown darker than the basket so the two layers separate.

Three chicks work their way down a grassy slope, each nudging an egg along in front of it. Sunny yellow suits all three birds with orange beaks and feet, and the eggs can go pastel blue, mint, and coral. Flowering bushes and grass tufts fill the lower half of the page.

A bunny sits cross legged with an open book held in both paws, flowers standing tall on either side. Soft gray suits the fur with rose pink inner ears, and a sky blue book cover keeps the center bright. Give the four garden flowers different colors so the border has variety.

A ring of broad leaves circles three patterned eggs with a wide ribbon bow tied at the base. Use two or three greens across the leaves so the ring has depth, then give each egg its own shade. A turquoise bow at the bottom finishes it without competing with the eggs.

One large egg is divided into vertical panels, each packed with a different geometric pattern. Triangles, nested diamonds, tumbling cubes, small squares and stacked scallops all want their own color family. Pick a palette of four or five shades and repeat them across panels for coherence.

Seven decorated eggs nestle among tall grass blades, daisies and clusters of tiny flowers filling every corner. Give each egg its own color so the patterns read, then work two or three greens through the foliage. The small blossoms take pinks, yellows and pale blues.

An arched stained glass window divides into sixteen panels holding doves, lilies, fleur de lis and a cross at the center. Treat it like real glass: deep jewel blues, reds and golds, with each panel kept to two or three shades. Leave the lead lines white so every pane stays defined.

A finely drawn rabbit looks straight out from the center of an oval frame built from blossoms, leaves and curling scrollwork. Build the fur from layered warm grays and browns, following the direction of every stroke. Keep the frame flowers to two or three pinks so they stay balanced.

Six eggs hang in a neat row from a flowering branch, each covered in its own folk pattern of scrolls, scallops or diamonds. Give every egg a different color family so the row reads as six designs, not one. A leafy spray runs along the bottom to close the composition.

Seven open lilies spill from a patterned vase, the whole arrangement set inside a scalloped lace border. Keep the petals near white with the faintest blush, and put your color into the vase medallions and the border. A soft palette lets the lilies stay the brightest thing on the page.

A round gnome stands under a tall pointed hat with bunny ears sticking out on both sides, an egg held in its mitten hands. Try a lilac hat, cream beard, and a coral egg, with soft gray inside the ears. The shapes are big and simple, ideal for crayons.

A big decorated egg floats overhead as a hot air balloon, a square basket hanging below on four ropes. Try a zigzag band in coral, waves in turquoise, and four circles in buttercup yellow. Two soft blue clouds drift past on either side of the basket.

A round chick perches on the edge of a wheelbarrow stacked with four plain eggs. Sunny yellow suits the bird and barn red the wheelbarrow, then give each egg a soft pastel of its own. A darker rim on the wheel keeps the bottom of the page grounded.

Two bunnies sit at a round table set with a teapot, two cups and a tiered stand of treats, under an arch of flowering vine. Soft gray fur, a cream tablecloth and a mint teapot work well together. Give the cupcake, cake slice and egg on the stand three different colors.

A bunny in a chef hat and apron leans over the counter of a little bakery stall, three treats lined up on the shelf below. Try a coral and cream striped awning, soft gray fur, and a decorated egg between a cupcake and a marshmallow bunny. Keep the stall frame a warm wood brown.

A bunny peers out of a balloon basket while a second egg balloon drifts alongside, three patterned hills below. Try turquoise waves on one balloon and coral zigzags on the other, with dots, flowers and hearts picked out on the hills. Soft blue clouds fill the gaps between.

A squirrel and a small bird stand on a leafy branch with a patterned egg held between them. Warm russet suits the squirrel and sky blue the bird, with a cream egg carrying zigzags and dots in coral. Add darker green under each leaf so the branch has some depth.

A rabbit sits upright among open lilies inside an oval medallion, surrounded by curling scrollwork and clusters of small flowers. Keep the rabbit in soft warm grays so the frame can carry the color. Try blush pinks and golds in the scrollwork with deeper greens in the leaves.

Nine potted Easter lilies line three greenhouse shelves under a peaked glass roof, with hanging baskets on either side. Keep the blooms near white and put your color into the patterned pots, each one different. A tiled floor and a watering can finish the scene at the bottom.

A bunny face sits at the center of a full mandala, rings of tulips, decorated eggs and pointed petals radiating outward. Pick three or four colors and repeat them ring by ring so the symmetry reads. The tulips and eggs alternate, which gives you a natural rhythm to follow.

Four cottages and a church spire stand along a cobbled path, egg shaped bunting strung overhead and the sun rising behind. Give each cottage its own wall color and keep the roofs in warmer tones. Decorated eggs and flowers crowd the garden beds on both sides of the path.
