What’s Included in These Welsh Coloring Pages

These free Welsh coloring sheets combine simple illustrations with short facts to help kids learn about Wales in an easy, age-appropriate way.

St. David’s Day Traditions in Wales

St. David’s Day is a national holiday celebrated every year on March 1st in honor of the patron saint of Wales. The coloring pages introduce children to how the day is marked, including traditional symbols and why it is an important part of Welsh culture.

Wales is part of the United Kingdom and is located on the western side of Great Britain. The capital city is Cardiff, and the country is known for its mountains, countryside, forests, and coastline.

Two completed Welsh-themed coloring pages are shown. One celebrates St. David’s Day with three cartoon children dressed in red, green, and white, alongside a description of the March 1st holiday. The second page outlines the shape of Wales with the words “Wales” and “Cymru” in red and green, plus a short paragraph describing the country’s geography and capital, Cardiff. Red and green bead necklaces and a box of Crayola crayons are also included in the scene.

The Welsh Flag and the Welsh Language

Welsh is a Celtic language with a long history and remains an important part of life in Wales today. Around 20% of the population speaks Welsh, and it is taught in schools to help preserve it for future generations.

The Welsh flag features a red dragon on a green and white background. The dragon is a national symbol representing strength, courage, and pride.

Two completed Welsh-themed coloring pages are shown. One page highlights the Welsh language with the words “Wales” and “Cymru” colored in red and green, and text explaining Welsh as a Celtic language spoken by around 20% of the population. The second page features the Welsh flag, showing a red dragon on a green and white background, with a description of its symbolism. A box of Crayola crayons and red and green beaded necklaces are also part of the scene.

Landmarks and Everyday Life in Wales

Caernarfon Castle is a medieval fortress in North Wales built in the 13th century and is one of the country’s most famous historical sites.

Sheep farming has played a major role in Wales for generations, and there are now more sheep than people. There are around 10 million sheep in Wales, compared to roughly 3 million people.

Two uncolored Welsh-themed educational coloring pages are displayed. One features a cartoon sheep and a paragraph explaining that Wales has more sheep than people—about 10 million sheep to 3 million people. The second shows Caernarfon Castle with text describing it as a medieval fortress built by King Edward I in the 13th century. The setup includes a box of Crayola crayons and a festive strand of red and green beads.

The daffodil is the national flower of Wales and is commonly worn on St. David’s Day as a symbol of spring and new beginnings.

Rugby is one of the most popular sports in Wales, with many families closely following the national team.

According to tradition, St. David once encouraged Welsh soldiers to wear leeks so they could recognize one another in battle, which is why leeks remain an important Welsh symbol today.

Three Welsh-themed coloring pages are displayed. One features cartoon leeks, another shows a bright yellow daffodil with green leaves labeled as the national flower of Wales, and the third includes a rugby player with a red and green rugby ball, emphasizing Wales' strong rugby culture. The pages include educational descriptions beneath each illustration. Red and green beaded necklaces are placed around the pages as decoration.

Books About Wales for Kids

I like pairing coloring pages with storybooks so children can connect what they’re coloring with real places, traditions, and legends. These Wales-themed books work especially well alongside the Welsh coloring pages for geography and cultural studies.

The Welsh Fairy Book is a wonderful collection of traditional Welsh folktales filled with dragons, magical creatures, and classic legends that bring Welsh storytelling to life for younger readers.

A Child’s Christmas in Wales offers a warm, nostalgic look at Christmas traditions in Wales, giving kids a gentle introduction to everyday life and culture through storytelling.

Welsh Legends and Myths retells famous Welsh myths in an accessible way, making it a great companion to lessons about dragons, castles, and ancient stories connected to Wales.

Celtic Fairy Tales includes stories from Wales and other Celtic regions, helping children see how Welsh legends fit into the wider Celtic tradition.

If you’d like something that leans more toward classic mythology, The Mabinogion (in child-friendly adaptations) introduces some of Wales’ oldest and most famous tales.
