Where can I find Mother's Day coloring pages to print?

This page has ten Mother's Day coloring pages to print: flower bouquet, mama owl with her owlet, heart with flower, flower pot, rose, butterfly, teacup, letter with a heart, medal and cupcake. Each drawing is a black outline only, with large closed areas, with or without a background, and can become a card or a small gift.

How to use it

  1. Tap the name of the drawing you want.
  2. Choose with background (pennants, stars and confetti) or no background (just the figure, nice and big).
  3. Choose full page or two per page. With two per page, the same drawing prints twice, with a cut line.
  4. Tap Print the sheet. In the print window, keep the scale at 100% (or choose Fit to page on Letter paper).

  • Framed picture: color the bouquet on a full page with background and glue it onto a larger sheet of colored paper, like a frame.
  • A real medal: print the medal with no background on thick paper, color it, cut it out and attach a ribbon.
  • Kindness coupon: on the back of the cut-out drawing, write a coupon: a hug, breakfast together, an afternoon walk.
  • Class gift: each child picks a drawing and colors it with the favorite colors of the person who will get it.

Printing tips

  • The drawing is outline only, with no filled areas. It uses little ink, even on a home printer.
  • Print in black and white. Draft mode already gives lines that are good to color.
  • For cards and small gifts, use thicker paper, such as card stock.
  • For a class, use two per page: half the paper for the same number of children.

When is Mother's Day

Mother's Day falls on different dates around the world. Many countries celebrate it on the second Sunday of May, others in March, on another day in May or at another time of year. That is why the drawings carry no date and no text.

The drawings work for anyone who cares for a child: mom, grandma, aunt, godmother, stepmom. The child chooses who to color for.
