Fun Crafts And Activities To Do With Beach Coloring Pages.

You know what’s the plus point of coloring pages? They open up a bunch of possibilities once they’re colored in, like crafts, little games, decorations for the room, or even for gifting purpose. So if you’re wondering what else you can do once the coloring part is done, take a look at a few good ideas below.

  1. Tell a Tiny Story

Once the coloring is done, take a deep look at what is happening in the picture and write a short story surrounding it. Maybe the crab is an ally of a pirate and is looking for buried treasure, or the shark is racing across the sea to meet his friend. You can write your version on the back of the page or, turn them into a homemade book, if you have a few finished sheets. It doesn’t need to be perfect, should be something made with heart.

  1. Cut Things Out and Hang Them

Once you are done coloring the fish, the trees, the sun, and the surfboard, cut them out, punch a small hole at the top of image, and hang them from a stick using a thread or yarn. Your cute little beachy mobile is ready for you to hang in your room or window.

  1. Turn It Into a Card

Print out the image on a card stock paper, trim it a bit and fold it like a greeting card. To give a personal touch, write a short note inside like, “Happy Summer Holidays!” You can gift these handmade cards to friends, grandparents or teachers.

  1. Make a Puzzle Out of It

If you are looking for a fun and easy, craft, this one’s for you. Attached the colored page on a piece of cardboard, leave it to dry. Once it’s dried, cut it into big and small pieces, big for smaller kids, and small for older ones. Here’s a homemade puzzle that kids can put together over and over again.

  1. Build a Mixed Collage

Use the coloring page as your base and then add little extras, like some blue tissue paper pieces to stick on as waves or a little real sand on glue for texture. There’s no real rule here, just keep adding layers until it feels done. I am sure it will end up being something you would want to hang up proudly.

  1. Puppet Time

Color and cut out the characters featured on these coloring pages, stick them to straws or Popsicle sticks and your puppets are ready. Team up with your friends, make up a beach story and act it out. It’s great for solo play too or something even parents can join in.

  1. Create a Mini Beach Scene

Grab an empty shoebox, lay it on its side and use the bottom part as your backdrop. Glue some sand or brown paper to the bottom and use your coloring page characters to fill it in. To make it stand out, add some cotton ball clouds or tiny shells if you’ve got any. It becomes a little 3D beach scene you can look at, play with, or show off to your friends and class mates.

  1. Summer Scrapbook

Collect a few finished coloring pages along with real-life summer memories. Whether you have taken a beach trip a couple of months ago or simply played with a sprinkler in the backyard, write it down on the coloring page. You can even stick some photos, drawings, or stickers. Your summer scrapbook is ready.

  1. Share Fun Facts With Kids

Parents can even use these pages to introduce simple facts to their children. If your child is coloring a sea turtle, tell them one quick fact like how far a turtle can swim. Or if they’re working on a page with seashells, talk about how some animals live inside them. Nothing heavy or boring, just tiny of knowledge related to something they’re already enjoying.

  1. Make a Simple Bingo Game

You can try your hands at creating a small beach-themed bingo board using colored images of things like flip flops, sand buckets, and umbrellas. Print several boards with different combinations, then cut out small versions to use as call-outs. Use coins or buttons as markers, and play a few rounds as a family.

  1. Light Up the Windows

Print out a coloring page on wax paper and fill it in using markers. When it’s done, tape it to the window. You will notice that when the light comes through, the color will glow softly, giving a stained glass effect and bringing the beach vibe indoors.

  1. Craft a Travel Kit

Use a small plastic bucket or even a sandwich bag to pack a mini beach coloring kit. Throw in a few folded pages, a couple of crayons and a glue stick. It’s something you can bring along in the car or pull out during quiet time.

  1. Try a Matching Game

This one’s for parents. Print out or make copies of the same page and color each one a little differently. Your child’s job would be to spot the differences or match similar shapes and scenes. This activity will sharpen the observation skills of children, while keeping things playful.
