Grizzly Bear Catching a Fish in a River
A friendly grizzly bear stands in a shallow river and holds a jumping fish in its paws, with ripples and rocks around it.
About this design
A friendly brown bear stands in a shallow river with a fish jumping in its paws. Ripples spread out around its feet, and two rocks sit on the water at the front. The bear has small round ears, a big nose and a wide smile. Real grizzlies in places like Alaska catch salmon this way in the fall, when they eat as much as they can before winter. Kids can color the bear brown, the fish silver or orange, and the water a few shades of blue. The scales on the fish give the page a little extra detail, so it suits ages 4 and up.
Teddy Bear Picnic on a Blanket
A cute cartoon bear sits on a checkered picnic blanket with a basket, a sandwich, an apple and a jar of juice.
About this design
A cute teddy-style bear with round ears and a big smile sits on a checkered picnic blanket. In front of it are a woven picnic basket, a sandwich, an apple and a jar of juice. The bear is one big round shape and the food is made of clear, simple parts, so even little hands can stay inside the lines. Kids can color the blanket in two colors and fill in the squares, then pick red or green for the apple. It is a good page for a picnic day, a teddy bear party or a first coloring session at ages 2 to 5.
Little Bear Climbing a Tree
A small bear with a round chest patch hugs a tree trunk and climbs toward a branch full of leaves.
About this design
A small bear with a round patch on its chest hugs a tree trunk and climbs up with its claws. The tree has a few leafy branches at the top, and a tuft of grass sits at the bottom. The bear looks happy, with a wide smile and its tongue showing a little. Sun bears, the smallest bears in the world, really do climb trees to find honey and fruit. Kids can color the bear dark brown or black, leave the chest patch light and fill the leaves in different greens. The page has a big open trunk, so it suits ages 3 to 6.
Mother Bear with Two Cubs in the Forest
A mother bear sits with two playful cubs in front of tall pine trees and bushes.
About this design
A mother bear sits in a forest clearing with two cubs in front of her. One cub sits with its paws together, and the other leans in with a big smile. Three tall pine trees stand behind them and a few bushes and grass tufts fill the edges. The mother has a thick furry chest, drawn with a few simple tufts of fur. Kids can color the family in warm browns, then add several greens for the trees. The cubs are small and the trees are big, so there is a good mix of easy and detailed shapes for ages 4 to 8.
Bear Sleeping in a Winter Den
A bear sleeps curled up inside a snowy cave den while snowflakes fall outside and a pine tree stands nearby.
About this design
A bear sleeps curled into a ball inside a snowy cave, with its eyes shut and its nose tucked into its paws. Snowflakes fall outside the cave, a pine tree stands at the side and soft mounds of snow sit along the ground. Many bears sleep through the coldest months in a den like this one, and their heartbeat slows down a lot while they rest. Kids can color the bear brown, the snow a light blue and the cave a dark gray or purple. With only a few big shapes, it suits ages 3 and up and fits a winter or animal habitat lesson.
Bear Eating Honey from a Beehive
A happy bear sits next to a wooden beehive and holds a dripping honeycomb while three bees buzz around it.
About this design
A happy bear sits beside a wooden beehive box and holds up a piece of honeycomb with honey dripping from it. Three small bees buzz around its head. The bear has a big smile, round ears and rosy cheeks, and one foot pad shows at the bottom. The honeycomb is a pattern of six-sided cells, which gives kids a small detail to color, and the honey drips down the side of the box in long drops. Kids can use golden yellow for the honey, brown for the bear and black and yellow for the bees. The page suits ages 3 to 6.
About This Collection
A giant panda holds a bamboo stalk in both paws, and pandas relax inside a zoo enclosure with visitors and rocks in front.
A teddy-style bear has a picnic on a checkered blanket, a brown bear licks honey from a hive while bees buzz around it, and a small bear climbs a leafy tree. Two polar bear pages bring the snow: a large parent bear stands on a mound with two cubs beside it, and a round cartoon bear wears a long knitted scarf. A teddy bear dressed as Cupid carries Valentine's details, and Winnie the Pooh stands with both paws clutching a honey pot.
The picnic bear, the honey bear and the scarf bear have big, soft shapes for ages 3 to 5. The panda, zoo and forest family pages have bamboo leaves, rocks and trees for ages 6 and up. Pandas and polar bears are mostly black and white or bare paper, so the real color goes into scarves, bamboo and honey.
Bear Coloring FAQ
How many cubs do polar bears usually have?
A mother polar bear typically gives birth to one or two cubs at a time, occasionally three, inside a snow den she digs and enters in late autumn. The cubs are born blind and weigh less than a pound and a half, growing quickly on their mother's extremely rich milk before leaving the den in early spring.
Do real polar bears wear scarves in the wild?
Real polar bears rely on thick fur, black skin, and a heavy layer of blubber to stay warm, so they need no clothing at all. The scarf on the Polar Bear in a Winter Scarf design on this page is a playful holiday detail rather than something a real bear wears.
Do pandas have thumbs?
Pandas have an enlarged wrist bone that works like a false thumb, giving extra grip for holding bamboo stalks steady while eating.
What do giant pandas eat?
Giant pandas eat almost exclusively bamboo - up to 40 pounds per day - despite having the digestive system of a carnivore. They have a specialized wrist bone that acts as a thumb for gripping bamboo stalks. Less than 2% of their diet includes other plants or occasional small animals.
Who created Winnie the Pooh?
Winnie the Pooh was created by A. A. Milne, a British author who first wrote the character in 1926. The stories were inspired by his son Christopher Robin Milne's stuffed bear, which was named after a real Canadian black bear called Winnie.
Why are polar bears associated with winter and cold weather scenes?
Polar bears live almost entirely within the Arctic Circle, spending much of their lives on sea ice where they hunt seals, their primary food source. Their thick white fur and layer of blubber let them survive temperatures far below freezing, which is exactly why they became a natural symbol for wintry, snow-covered holiday artwork.
