Ideas for this Butterfly Patterns Coloring Page:

• For any age group, any activity: Print the coloring page on plain computer paper. Color the picture with crayons, markers, or colored pencils.

• At a party: Print as many coloring pages as you need so that each guest gets one coloring page. Have everyone sit at a table, and have a box full of crayons, markers, and colored pencils in the middle of the table. Have everyone start coloring the page. This is a fun way to color because each guest will have to ask questions like “Who has the red crayon?” and everyone will have fun passing around the colors.

• As an activity to occupy kids (of any age): This is a quiet activity to keeps kids occupied (on a rainy day, when home sick, or in the hospital). Print this page several times. With one coloring page, give out crayons. With another one, give out colored markers. With another one, give out colored pencils. You can do the same with glitter glue and stickers. The idea here is that it is the same picture, but it will end up looking different.

• To use as a greeting card or invitation: Print the coloring page. Color and decorate as desired. Use the back to write a greeting or an invitation. Fold like a business letter and insert into a regular business (#10) envelope.

• To use as a craft or gift: Print the coloring page on either plain white paper, or on light-colored card stock (which is a heavier paper that you can get in most any office supply store or discount stores like Wal-Mart). Color the page with crayons, markers, or colored pencils, and then decorate with glitter glue and stickers. Use pinking shears to cut a decorative edge. When the coloring page is dry, glue onto a larger piece of card stock, poster board, or clean cardboard. Use as refrigerator art or as a perfect gift for Grandma and Grandpa!

• Use as an exercise to learn colors: Print the coloring page. In pencil, write in color names in each coloring section. Have the child read the color, find that color crayon, and then color that area.

• Use as an exercise to learn numbers: Print the coloring page. In pencil, write a number in each coloring section. Now, write a list of numbers and the corresponding color, such as: 1 = Blue, 2 = Green, 3 = Red. Have the child read the number, match the number to the color, find that color crayon, and then color that area.

• Use as an exercise to learn words: Print the coloring page. In pencil, write a word in each coloring section. Now, write a list of numbers and the corresponding color, such as: Hat = Blue, Face = Tan, Shoe = Black. Have the child read the word, match the word to the color, find that color crayon, and then color that area. You can use this exercise to learn names of things in the picture, so this is a good exercise for easy pictures. You can also turn it into a “nonsense” game and make up silly words.
