Fun Things To Do With Your Olympics Coloring Pages
Here are some creative ways to use your Olympics coloring sheets beyond just coloring. These crafts and activities are perfect for classrooms, parties, or family fun during the Games.
1. Create Your Own Olympic Medal Ceremony
Print out coloring pages of medals and athletes. Have kids color them, cut them out, and glue them onto cardboard circles to make medals. Use string or ribbon to turn them into wearable Olympic medals for pretend play. Then, host a medal ceremony at home where kids can stand on a podium (made from boxes) while family members cheer.
2. Make an Olympics Sports Banner
After coloring different Olympic sports pages, kids can cut out the pictures and attach them to a long piece of string or yarn. Hang the banner across a room, classroom wall, or backyard to celebrate the Games. Each page could feature a different sport, turning the banner into a mini “Parade of Sports.”
3. DIY Olympic Torch Craft
Use a torch coloring sheet, color it in bright reds, oranges, and yellows, then cut it out. Attach the paper flame to the top of a rolled-up paper towel tube wrapped in aluminum foil. Now kids can carry their own Olympic torch around the house or playground for a pretend opening ceremony.
4. Olympics-Themed Puzzle Game
Print two copies of the same coloring page. After coloring one, glue it onto cardboard and cut it into puzzle pieces. Kids can mix up the pieces and try to reassemble the Olympic scene. This activity is both fun and educational since it helps with problem-solving skills.
5. Design Your Own Olympic Flag
Print out blank flag coloring sheets or Olympic rings. Kids can design their own country’s flag using markers and crayons, then glue it to a straw or popsicle stick. Host a mini “Opening Ceremony” parade where everyone waves their homemade flags.
6. Sports Trading Cards
Shrink down your printable Olympics coloring sheets by printing multiple pages on one sheet of paper. After coloring, cut them into small rectangles to make “Olympics trading cards.” Kids can collect and trade cards featuring different sports, mascots, or athletes.
7. Olympics Coloring Book Keepsake
Instead of coloring just one page, print a whole set of Olympics coloring sheets. Once kids finish coloring, staple or bind the pages together to make their own Olympic coloring book. Add a cover page with their name and the year of the Olympics for a keepsake memory.
8. Design Your Own Olympic Mascot
Some Olympics have mascots, so why not let kids make their own? Use animal or character coloring pages and encourage kids to color them in Olympic colors. They can add sports equipment like tennis rackets, basketballs, or skis to give their mascot a sporty theme.
9. DIY Olympic Tickets
Print out tickets coloring sheets or make your own on blank paper. Kids can design and color them to look like entry passes for different sports. Then set up a pretend Olympic event at home where family members use the tickets to watch races, games, or performances.
10. Olympic Torch Relay Race
Use the torch coloring page to make multiple paper torches. After coloring and assembling them, kids can use the torches in a relay race around the backyard or classroom. Each runner “passes the torch” to the next, just like in the real Olympics.
11. Olympics Scrapbook
Have kids color different sports and Olympic symbols, then glue them into a scrapbook. Add captions like “Gymnastics,” “Swimming,” or “Track & Field.” This makes a fun educational project to learn about each event while keeping a colorful memory book of the Games.
12. Medal Chart Tracker
Use medal-themed coloring pages to create a chart. Kids can color in a gold, silver, or bronze medal every time their favorite country wins in the Olympics. This turns the coloring activity into a fun way to track real Olympic results.
13. Olympic Rings Chain Garland
Print out Olympic rings or draw circles. After coloring them in the five official ring colors, cut them out and link them together like a paper chain. Hang the chain as a party decoration or classroom banner.
14. Make a Sports Guessing Game
Color and cut out different Olympic sports coloring sheets. Glue them onto cards and play a guessing game where one player acts out the sport while others guess. It’s like charades but with Olympic sports as the theme.
15. Personalized Athlete Posters
Let kids pick their favorite Olympic sport coloring page and color it. Then add their own face to the athlete by cutting out a photo of themselves and gluing it onto the page. Frame it or hang it up as a fun “I’m an Olympian!” poster.
