Fun Things To Do With Your Earth Coloring Pages
Coloring is just the beginning! Once you’ve added your personal touch to these free Earth coloring pages, try out some of these fun craft ideas. Each one is designed to reuse your finished artwork and turn it into something new and exciting. Great for teachers, parents, or anyone looking for creative Earth Day crafts!
1. Earth Day Mini Book
Turn your Earth coloring pages into a mini book all about our planet. Print and color 4–6 pages showing different Earth scenes—like recycling, animals, and nature. Once colored, fold each sheet in half and staple them together along the folded edge. Have your child write a sentence or two about how they help the Earth on each page. This makes a great take-home project for classrooms!
2. Planet Earth Mobile
Cut out several colored Earths and hang them from a coat hanger or paper plate using string. You can also add stars, moons, and planets from other coloring sheets if you like. Punch a hole in the top of each piece and use yarn or ribbon to tie them up. This craft makes a fun decoration for Earth Day or a space-themed classroom corner.
3. Earth Puzzle Craft
After coloring a page with a detailed Earth design, glue it onto a piece of cardboard (like from a cereal box). Once it’s dry, cut it into puzzle-shaped pieces. Kids can then put the puzzle back together, or mix and match pieces with other designs. Great for quiet time activities!
4. Eco-Friendly Placemat
Choose a favorite Earth coloring sheet and laminate it (or cover it with clear contact paper) to make a reusable placemat. These are great for lunch or snack time and help teach kids to care for the planet. Use different themes—like ocean life or recycling—for a fun set.
5. Earth Day Greeting Cards
Fold a piece of construction paper in half and glue a smaller colored Earth page onto the front. Write a message like “Love Your Planet!” or “Happy Earth Day!” inside. These cards can be handed out during Earth Day events or mailed to friends and family to spread awareness.
6. Recycled Art Collage
Use torn pieces from colored Earth coloring sheets to create a collage. Glue the pieces onto a larger paper to form a tree, globe, or even a nature scene. Add extra materials like paper scraps, leaves, or fabric to make a textured and eco-friendly piece of art.
7. Earth Headbands
Cut out a colored Earth and attach it to a long strip of construction paper to fit around a child’s head. Decorate the band with stars, trees, or little drawings about saving the planet. Tape or staple the ends together for a fun Earth Day headband that’s perfect for class parties or parades.
8. Story Starter Craft
Let kids choose a colored Earth page and use it as the inspiration for a short story. Staple their finished drawing to the top of a lined sheet and have them write a story underneath. The story can be about an Earth superhero, a journey around the world, or even a message from the planet!
9. DIY Planet Posters
Use large colored Earth pages as the centerpiece of an educational poster. Add labels, facts about the planet, and ideas for taking care of the Earth. This is a great classroom activity or science project display. Use recycled materials to build your poster base for extra eco points!
10. Earth Garland
Cut out small Earths from different coloring sheets and string them together to make a garland. Hang it across windows, bulletin boards, or classroom doors. Add letters to spell out “EARTH DAY” or “GO GREEN” for a cool banner that celebrates our world.
11. Nature Journal Covers
Glue a finished Earth coloring sheet onto the front of a notebook to create a personalized nature journal. Kids can use the journal to record observations during nature walks, sketch plants and animals, or write about ways to protect the planet. Add stickers and washi tape for extra fun.
12. DIY Earth Board Game
Use a colored Earth sheet as the center of a homemade board game. Draw a path around it using construction paper, and create cards with questions about recycling, plants, and animals. Use coins or buttons as game pieces and take turns learning about the Earth in a playful way.
13. Earth Lanterns
Wrap a colored Earth page around a recycled glass jar and secure with tape. Place a battery tea light inside to create a glowing Earth lantern. These are fun for evening events or Earth Day parties. Always use battery lights for safety, especially with kids.
14. Classroom Bulletin Board Display
Color several Earth pages and use them to build a themed display on a bulletin board. Add the words “Our Beautiful Earth” and surround it with student work, facts about the planet, and drawings. A great way to bring awareness and pride to classroom projects.
15. Earth Magnets
Shrink your favorite Earth coloring page to a smaller size, color it, and glue it to a thick piece of cardboard. Attach a small magnet to the back and use it on the fridge or a magnetic whiteboard.
