Celebrate the Season with Thanksgiving Coloring Pages and Decorations

Somehow September and October have flown by, leaving us smack dab at the beginning of November and the holiday season. As your children study more about the history of Thanksgiving, whether at home or at school, coloring pages are a good way to help them learn as well as promote creativity.

Take a look below at the following websites that have free Thanksgiving coloring pages for you and your little ones!

This website has ten pages of Thanksgiving coloring pages, including the classic turkey in Pilgrim garb, scarecrows, pumpkins, cornucopias, Native Americans and Pilgrims. This website also contains word puzzles, mazes, Connect the Dots, Cut-and-Paste and Color by Number print-outs.

The website features Thanksgiving themed arcade games, puzzles, jokes and quizzes, as well as a Thanksgiving crafts how-to section (Make a Pilgrim Hat, Pine Cone Turkey). There is even a coloring game online, just in case you don't have a printer with which to print off those Thanksgiving coloring pages.
