The pages include bold designs such as a butterfly with hearts, a cupcake, and the word "LOVE" in large block letters. A colorful rug and a red tray of dry erase markers are on the floor. On the right side, a close-up shows a child using a blue dry erase marker to color inside the letter "O" on the "LOVE" page.

Kids LOVE dry erase window coloring pages

What if I told you that coloring pages don’t have to stay on the table?

This fun window activity turns regular printable coloring pages into an interactive, vertical, out-of-the-box art activity that kids love.

Kids can color, erase, color, erase, and repeat over and over and over again.

Three children, two in red and white sweaters and one in a purple fleece, stand barefoot at a sliding glass door, collaboratively coloring on dry erase window coloring pages taped to the outside. They are using colorful markers on designs including the word "LOVE," a butterfly, and a cupcake. A red tray filled with dry erase markers sits on the vibrant patterned rug beneath them. The outdoor scene through the window features a garden with potted plants and a wooden fence.

A young girl in a black "SIS" t-shirt is laughing joyfully while holding a dry erase marker in one hand and a cloth in the other. She has just erased a section of her window coloring. Below her, a younger child in a red and white striped sweater is still focused on coloring. The sliding glass window is covered with various taped coloring pages featuring heart and Valentine’s Day themes.

How to set up dry erase window coloring pages

Setting this up is as easy as taping coloring sheets onto a window.

Just grab some Friends Art Lab coloring pages, stick them on the outside of a window facing in, and let kids color directly onto the glass with dry erase markers.

It’s a simple way to mix up their creative routine while also sneaking in some fine motor work.

And when they’re done? A quick wipe and they can start all over again.

When done, try some of these other fun ways to use coloring pages:

  • Scratch-and-Sniff Coloring Pages
  • Print Coloring Pages on Crayola Color Wonder Paper
A preschool-aged child in a purple fleece sits on the floor, intently coloring in a heart-shaped character with big eyes and a flower on its head. The child is using a white dry erase marker on the window, which is covered with multiple taped coloring pages. Natural light streams in from the window, illuminating the child’s workspace. A green backyard with bushes and flowers is visible through the glass.

5 reasons why Friends Art Lab coloring pages are the best

Not all coloring pages are created equally and our Friends Art Lab coloring pages are the best ones in the world.

Here’s why they’re a must-have for this dry erase window coloring activity (and beyond!):

  1. Hand-drawn designs – Each page is hand-drawn with care, giving kids high-quality, unique artwork to color.
  2. Perfect for all ages – Simple outlines for younger kids, plus intricate details that older kids love.
  3. Print as many as you want – Unlimited coloring fun with printable coloring pages you can use over and over!
  4. Works great with dry erase markers – Bold, crisp outlines make coloring on windows extra fun.
  5. Fun, engaging themes – From seasonal designs to everyday favorites, there’s something for everyone.
A preschooler in a red and white striped sweater sits on the floor, coloring in a heart-themed coloring page taped to a sliding glass door. The child is holding a blue dry erase marker and focusing on filling in the details of the heart design. The window also displays other coloring pages, including a butterfly with hearts and a cupcake. Through the window, an outdoor patio with colorful chairs is visible.

Why dry erase window coloring pages are a must-try

There’s something extra fun about standing up and coloring on a vertical surface—but did you know it also helps kids develop essential skills?

When kids participate in dry erase window coloring, they engage different muscles than they do when coloring at a table. This strengthens their shoulder stability, arm control, and wrist positioning—all of which support fine motor skills and handwriting.

Vertical coloring also improves hand-eye coordination and visual tracking, as kids move their hands up, down, and side to side while staying within the lines of their coloring sheets.

So next time you’re setting up this activity, just know that while kids are having a blast, they’re also building important developmental skills. Win-win!

A young child in a purple fleece jacket carefully erasing a section of the "LOVE" coloring page taped to the outside of a sliding glass door. The child is using a soft white cloth to wipe away the dry erase marker. The surrounding window is decorated with additional coloring pages featuring heart-themed designs. The outdoor garden is visible in the background with potted plants and a wooden fence.

Cleaning up is a breeze

Dry erase markers wipe away easily with a dry cloth or paper towel.

No scrubbing, no stress—just endless coloring fun.

A close-up of two preschoolers actively coloring in the word "LOVE" on a window. One child is using a pink marker on the letter "V," while another is coloring the letter "O" in blue. The black-outlined letters stand out against the clear glass. The child's hand holding the marker is in focus, showing precise strokes. The background reveals a glimpse of an outdoor area with a green lawn and a colorful striped doormat beneath the window.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do dry erase markers work on every type of glass?

Most smooth glass surfaces work well, but test a small corner first just to be safe.

Can I use washable markers instead of dry erase markers?

Dry erase markers work best on glass as they’re more vibrant and won’t bead.

Where can I find the best coloring pages for kids?
