Coloring pages won’t spark as much creativity as making art from scratch, which requires kids to imagine something totally new, but they do provide a jumping-off point for kids to use their imaginations and develop their fine motor skills as they select which colors go where and practice staying (or, hopefully, not staying) within the lines. Whether you need coloring pages for little kids or big kids, Disney coloring pages, back-to-school coloring pages, or anything in between, these are the best the internet has to offer.
