Fun Things To Do With Your Polar Bear Coloring Pages

Once you’ve finished coloring your polar bears, the fun doesn’t have to stop there! Here are some cool and creative ideas for using your finished coloring sheets in art projects, learning activities, and homemade gifts.

1. Arctic Animal Collage

Turn your finished polar bear coloring pages into a big Arctic art project! Cut out your colored polar bears and glue them onto a large blue poster board. Add paper snowflakes, icebergs made from white paper scraps, and other Arctic animals you can draw or print. This makes a great classroom display or bedroom wall art that shows off your creativity.

2. Polar Bear Storybook

Encourage storytelling by making a mini picture book. Print several coloring sheets and have kids color each one. Then, fold the pages in half, staple them together along the edge, and write a few sentences on each page to tell a story about your polar bear’s adventures in the Arctic. It’s a fun way to mix art and writing!

3. Winter Window Decorations

Bring the Arctic indoors by turning your coloring sheets into window art. After coloring, carefully cut out your polar bears and tape them to your windows. Add some white tissue paper “snow” around them for a frosty look. When sunlight shines through, your polar bears will look like they’re playing in a snowy wonderland.

4. Polar Bear Puppets

For this project, you’ll need craft sticks, glue, and scissors. Cut out your colored polar bears and glue each one to a stick. You can make different bear characters — a mama bear, baby cub, and even a funny polar bear wearing a scarf! Once dry, use them to put on an Arctic puppet show.

5. Polar Bear Greeting Cards

Use your printable coloring sheets to create cute winter greeting cards. Fold a piece of cardstock in half, cut out your colored polar bear, and glue it to the front. Add snowflakes or stickers to decorate, and write a friendly message inside. These make great handmade holiday cards or thank-you notes.

6. Arctic Diorama

Build a mini Arctic scene inside a shoebox! Color and cut out a few polar bear coloring pages, then glue them onto cardboard to make them stand upright. Use cotton balls or white tissue paper for snow, and blue paper for icy water. This 3D project is great for school science lessons or just a fun afternoon craft.

7. Polar Bear Fact Board

Turn your coloring pages into an educational display. After coloring your bears, glue them onto construction paper and write fun facts about polar bears underneath each one. For example, “Polar bears have black skin under their white fur,” or “They can swim for hours!” Hang them up on the wall to create an Arctic learning center.

8. Polar Bear Mobiles

Make a hanging decoration that spins and sways like a snowflake in the wind. Print and color a few polar bears of different sizes. Punch a hole at the top of each one, tie strings through the holes, and attach them to a coat hanger or stick. Hang your mobile from the ceiling to create a floating Arctic scene.

9. Polar Bear Masks

Turn your coloring pages into wearable fun! Choose a simple polar bear face design, color it, and cut it out. Punch holes on the sides and tie on string or elastic so you can wear it as a mask. Perfect for classroom role-play, costume days, or a winter-themed party.

10. Gift Tags and Bookmarks

Shrink down your coloring sheets when printing to make smaller versions. After coloring, cut them into shapes like rectangles or circles, punch a hole at the top, and tie a ribbon through it. Use them as cute gift tags for presents or bookmarks for your favorite books.

11. Polar Bear Puzzle

Create your own homemade jigsaw puzzle! After coloring your polar bear, glue the page onto a piece of cardboard and let it dry. Then, cut it into different shapes with scissors. Mix up the pieces and try putting your puzzle back together. You can even trade puzzles with friends or classmates.

12. Polar Bear Coasters

Laminate your finished polar bear coloring pages and cut them into circles or squares. You can then use them as waterproof coasters for your drinks. This is a simple craft that turns your art into something useful, and it makes a great handmade gift too.

13. Snow Globe Craft

Use your polar bear coloring sheets to make a paper snow globe. Cut out your colored bear and glue it to a blue or silver background. Draw or add white dots for snow, then cut the whole picture into a circle. Glue a paper “base” underneath to make it look like a snow globe. For a sparkly touch, add glitter or shiny sequins for the snow.

14. Polar Bear Classroom Banner

If you’re a teacher, let each student color their own polar bear sheet. When everyone is done, string the pages together with yarn or ribbon to create a classroom banner. Hang it across the room or on a bulletin board for a cheerful Arctic display that celebrates every student’s creativity.

15. Polar Bear Memory Game

Print two copies of several different polar bear coloring pages. After coloring them, cut them into cards of equal size. Flip them over and use them to play a memory matching game. This is a fun and educational way for younger kids to build memory skills while enjoying their artwork.

No matter how you use them, these free, printable polar bear coloring pages are perfect for hours of creative fun.
