Coloring Pages

These images were inspired by real pictures, and proportions are preserved wherever possible.

Some have been created for “pin-poking,” which is an activity popular in Montessori preschool and kindergarten classrooms to develop grip strength and fine motor skills. Once the image is colored, use a square of felt and a push pin to poke holes in the thick lines around the main character, then tear. These images can also be printed on colored construction paper for such a purpose.
