About these pages

These pages are drawn with bold black outlines and large areas, so they stay readable for tired eyes or low vision and comfortable for hands that prefer big strokes. Familiar subjects, like flowers, a teapot, a cat or a Christmas tree, make them easy to start and nice to talk about.

Activity directors, caregivers and families can print them for free, as many times as needed, for a care home, a day center, a library session or a visit at home.

Tips for coloring with older adults

  • Use thick markers, chunky colored pencils or crayons: they need less pressure than fine pencils.
  • Print on thicker paper (cardstock) so the page does not slide or tear, and tape it to the table if needed.
  • Offer two or three colors at a time rather than a full box, to keep choices easy.
  • Seasonal pages are a good conversation starter: a Christmas tree in December, pumpkins in the fall.

Questions

Can I print these pages for a care home or a group?

Yes. You can print them free of charge for a care home, hospital, library, day center or therapy group. Selling or redistributing the files is not allowed.

What makes a coloring page good for seniors?

Thick outlines, large shapes, high contrast and a familiar subject. Very small details can be tiring for the eyes and the hands.

Is coloring good for people living with dementia?

Many caregivers use simple coloring as a calm, familiar activity. Choose bold pages, stay nearby, and let the person color at their own pace without any goal.

Which pens work best?

Felt-tip markers or soft, thick colored pencils. Our guide on alcohol markers explains how to avoid bleed-through.
