Free Groundhog Day Coloring Pages and Printables

Groundhog's Day is celebrated in the United States on February 2 every year. This is the day that decides when or if spring will be coming any time soon. If you are looking for Groundhog Day coloring pages to go along with the holiday there are links to printables below.

The groundhog can also be called a woodchuck in some parts of the country or by some people. The groundhog is a rodent in the same class as squirrels and other sometimes bothersome animals. But once a year in February the groundhog has his day in the spotlight. Every one will be watching to see what Punxsutawney Phil will see. If Phil the groundhog sees his shadow that means we have six more weeks of winter. If Punxsutawney Phil from Pennsylvania does not see his shadow then spring is on the way.
