Fun Things To Do With Your Graduation Coloring Pages
Looking to turn your graduation coloring pages into something extra special? Here are some creative ways to use them as part of your graduation celebration or classroom activities.
Graduation Banner
Turn your coloring pages into a big celebration banner. Print out letters that spell “CONGRATS GRAD” or “CLASS OF 2025” and color each one on a separate page. You can also add some of the graduation images like caps, stars, or diplomas. Once colored, string them together using a hole punch and yarn or ribbon and hang them on the wall for a party-ready decoration.
Graduation Cap Craft
After coloring a sheet that features a graduation cap, cut it out and glue it onto a strip of paper long enough to wrap around your head. Tape the ends to make a wearable hat. Kids love wearing these caps during their graduation party or pretend ceremonies at school or home.
Diploma Certificates
Use a diploma-style coloring page as a fun pretend certificate. After coloring, kids can write their names in the blank space, add the date, and even sign it. Teachers can give them out during class parties or end-of-year awards. It’s a great way for kids to feel proud of their accomplishment.
Graduation Greeting Cards
Fold your colored sheet in half and write a message inside to create a graduation card. These are great for kids to give to classmates, teachers, or family members who are graduating. You can even add stickers or glue on some glitter for extra flair.
Photo Frame Keepsake
Color a graduation-themed page, then cut out the center to make a frame. Add a photo of the graduate and tape or glue it to the back. This makes a special keepsake that parents can hang on the fridge or keep in a memory box.
Thank You Cards
Use graduation coloring pages to make handmade thank you cards. After the party or ceremony, your child can color a few pages, fold them, and write a note to say thanks to a teacher, family member, or friend who helped them along the way.
Graduation Memory Book
Create a small scrapbook using colored graduation pages. Add photos, write down favorite memories from the school year, and decorate each page. Use a stapler or hole punch with rings to keep it together. This is a fun project for kids and makes a sweet memento.
Candy Cone Party Favors
Roll your colored page into a cone shape, tape the edges, and fill it with wrapped candy. These make perfect party favors for classmates or guests at a graduation party. Add a ribbon or sticker to seal the top.
Desk Name Plates
Color a page that includes graduation icons, then fold it in half to make a standing name plate. Write the student’s name on it and use it for classroom events or a graduation celebration setup.
DIY Confetti Holder
Turn a colored graduation sheet into a cone or pouch and fill it with paper confetti. Pass them out at the end of a ceremony for a festive way to celebrate. You can even punch a small hole and attach a tag that says “Hooray!”
Graduation Puzzle
After coloring a page, glue it onto a piece of cardboard. Cut it into puzzle pieces and put it in a zip-top bag. Kids can solve their graduation puzzle again and again. It’s a fun take-home activity or gift for classmates.
Memory Jar Labels
Color a small graduation image, cut it out, and glue it onto a jar. Let kids fill the jar with rolled-up notes about their favorite memories from the year. This makes a great end-of-year reflection activity.
Party Placemat
Use a full-page coloring sheet as a party placemat. Kids can color while waiting for snacks, and it makes a cute table decoration. You can even laminate them to make them reusable.
Wall of Fame
Print out a graduation coloring page for each student in your class or group. Let each child color their page, write their name on it, and post them all on a “Wall of Fame” for a fun classroom display.
Whether you’re planning a graduation party, decorating your classroom, or just looking for a way to remember the end of the school year, these free, printable graduation coloring pages are a great place to start.
