Why our ocean coloring pages stand out from the crowd

Coloring pages were not only my favorite things in the world as a kid, but I also love them as an adult.

As a preschool teacher, finding collections of creative coloring pages without the stale clipart feel was impossible.

I looked for hand-drawn art, thick black lines, and wide coloring spaces made for kids.

I searched high and low, never finding the perfect match.

So, I made my own. 😉

Welcome to the ocean coloring pages

People have asked for an ocean set of coloring pages for years, and it’s finally here!

A toothy shark family!

A glasses-wearing blowfish!

A bustling coral reef!

It’s got everything from a crab, lobster, squid, shrimp, whale, dolphin, anchor, stingray, submarine, octopus, blowfish, and more.

Fun ways to use ocean coloring pages

Coloring pages set on a table with various drawing or painting materials is a 10/10 activity in itself.

In the preschool classroom, I love switchin’ it up, too.

Have you ever…

  • Laminated your coloring sheets and let kids color in with dry-erase markers?
  • Outlined coloring page lines in black glue and then painted in the next day with watercolors?
  • Used a blacklight + highlighters for a neon coloring party?
  • Painted in the art with Q-tips?
  • Printed multiple sheets per page to make mini coloring page books?

There are a million, billion creative ways to keep coloring pages engaging and exciting!
