Free Fall Coloring Pages for Kids

Fall coloring pages are a must in our house once the weather cools and the leaves start changing.

Instead of loose seasonal images, this printable set tells a simple story, one page at a time.

My son liked that there were characters to follow (and color), and I appreciated that it gave us a chance to talk about fall themes without it feeling like a lesson.

It’s low-prep, easy to use for mixed ages, and works well during storytime or quiet mornings when you just need something calm.

Autumn Coloring Pages for Storytime

These fall coloring pages are a little different, they tell a story as you go.

Each of the six printable pages includes part of a short autumn adventure, along with illustrations that kids can color in as they listen or read along.

The drawings are simple enough for younger kids but detailed enough to keep older ones interested too.

My son especially liked the pumpkins and forest animals, while I loved that he was practicing reading and staying focused without even realizing it.

The set prints on six full pages (black and white), and it’s designed to be easy to use at home or in the classroom.

These coloring pages are free for personal or classroom use. Scroll to the bottom of the post to grab the PDF by entering your email.
