Fun Things To Do With Your Tree Coloring Pages
Here are some cool and easy DIY crafts and activities you can do using your finished tree coloring pages. These ideas are perfect for school projects, nature units, or just having fun at home.
1. Make a 4-Season Tree Poster
Print out four different tree coloring pages and label each one with a season—spring, summer, fall, and winter. Have your child color them to match each season (blossoms for spring, green leaves for summer, orange and red for fall, snow for winter). Glue all four onto one poster board to show how trees change through the year. This is perfect for classrooms or science lessons.
2. Create a Family Tree Craft
Choose a large tree coloring sheet and turn it into a family tree. After coloring the tree, write family names on the branches or glue small photos of family members. You can even use leaves cut from construction paper to add names. It’s a fun way to learn about family history while creating a keepsake.
3. DIY Tree Leaf Rubbing Collage
Combine art and nature by collecting real leaves from outside. First, color a tree page. Then, glue real leaf rubbings around the branches to give it a 3D look. To make a rubbing, place a leaf under a sheet of paper and rub a crayon or pencil over it to reveal the shape and veins.
4. Build a Tree Habitat Diorama
Color a tree printable, cut it out, and stand it up in a shoebox or small box. Add other nature items like moss, rocks, or paper animals to make a forest scene. This is great for animal habitat lessons or creative storytelling.
5. Tree-Themed Greeting Cards
Fold a sheet of construction paper into a card, and glue a colored tree image on the front. Inside, write messages like “Happy Earth Day,” “Thank You,” or “Thinking of You.” These make great handmade cards for grandparents, teachers, or nature lovers.
6. Tree of Kindness Bulletin Board
Have each student color their own tree sheet. Then, glue all of them onto a big wall or board. Each time someone does something kind, they can add a leaf with a kind word or action written on it. Over time, the tree will grow full of kindness!
7. Fall Leaf Garland
Use tree coloring pages that show leaves falling. Have your child color and cut out the leaves, then string them together using yarn or string. Hang it as a fall decoration across a mantel, classroom, or window.
8. Earth Day Wall Art
Pick your favorite tree coloring sheet, color it carefully, and add a positive message like “Protect Our Planet” or “Trees Are Life.” Frame it or hang it as a poster to celebrate Earth Day. This is a great project for school or home.
9. Tree-Themed Bookmarks
Trim your colored tree pages into long rectangles. Laminate or tape them for durability, then punch a hole at the top and tie a ribbon. These bookmarks are great to give out at library time or use with nature-themed books.
10. Create a Tree Growth Chart
Use a tall tree coloring page and print it large (or tape two pages together). Tape it to the wall and use it as a height chart. Each time your child grows, mark the date and height on the trunk. It’s a fun way to track growth while celebrating nature!
11. Make a Tree Puzzle
After coloring a detailed tree page, glue it onto cardboard. Once dry, cut it into puzzle pieces using a pencil to outline shapes. Mix up the pieces and let your child put their own tree puzzle together again and again.
12. DIY Forest Scene Placemat
Color several trees and animals from your pages, cut them out, and glue them to a large piece of paper or laminated sheet. Use clear contact paper or laminate the finished scene to create a reusable placemat.
13. Paper Bag Tree Craft
Color a tree trunk and leaves, cut them out, and glue them to a small paper bag. Stuff the bag with paper to make it stand. Add real or paper leaves and small paper animals to create a cute forest display.
14. Tree Coloring Page Mobile
Color and cut out different tree shapes, leaves, and animals. Attach them to strings and hang them from a hanger or a stick. Now you’ve got a tree-themed mobile that looks great in a bedroom or classroom!
