Summer Coloring Pages for All Ages

Sandra Essary
Summer coloring pages offer kids a chance to use bright colors and their imaginations while coloring fun themes. With school out, children - and their parents - will be looking for activities to keep them busy, and summer coloring pages are perfect for just that.

So whether there's a summer rainstorm outside or it's just a quiet summer afternoon, try one of these sites to find the web's best summer coloring pages.

Coloring Book Fun has two summer coloring pages. The first one has 14 great coloring pages of a bike, butterfly, bucket and shovel for the beach, bikini, boat, and more. The second set of summer coloring pages has 37 pictures of teddy bears with beach balls, a campfire, a hot air balloon, a lemonade stand, seashells, swings, a starfish, sandcastles, fireflies, ice cream, and the dream of all moms - naptime.

These next summer coloring pages are simple line drawings, perfect for younger children, and include pictures of the beach, baseball, ice cream, and lots of kites. The kites are great opportunities for children to use their imaginations to color in their own kite designs.

Over 20 summer coloring pages at Apples 4 the Teacher include both simple line drawings and more detailed drawings of summer activities and so are suitable for all ages. I love the cuteness of some of these summer coloring pages, such as the family in the canoe, the family taking a trip to the beach with stuff blowing out of their car, and a bunch of dirty kids. There are also summer coloring pages of baseball, a hot dog and hamburger talking to each other, a smiling shark, and a water balloon fight.

The twenty-five summer coloring pages at Kid Printables have an ominous tornado to color that would have given me nightmares as a kid. But there are plenty of fun things to color in these summer coloring pages, too, such as a family camping, a rainbow, dancing picnic food, a skateboarder, and a trip to the beach with a funny inflatable on the roof of the car.

The luau summer coloring pages I am including here really remind me of the tropics and summer. The coloring pages are almost like travel posters and include pictures of a hula girl, colorful parrots, dolphins, windsurfing, a colorful Hawaiian shirt, and palm trees.
