Printable Dragon Coloring Pages for Kids and Preschoolers

A baby dragon pops out of a cracked egg, with big round eyes, a small pair of wings and a curled tail that wraps around the back of the shell. The egg is covered in round spots, and a few eggshell pieces lie in the grass at its base. Stars float around the top of the page. The spots on the egg are separate closed shapes, so kids can color each one a different shade, and the wings have a few simple ribs. The shapes are large and the outlines thick, which suits ages 3 and up. Green and yellow work for the dragon, and any bright color suits the egg.

A smiling dragon sits on the top of a round castle tower with its wings stretched wide. A small flag flies from the tower roof, and puffy clouds sit on both sides. The tower is built from rows of bricks with a tall arched door at the bottom and a bit of grass at the base. The bricks are good for gray, tan or red, and kids can alternate two colors to make a pattern. The dragon has a ridged belly, a small horn and a wide grin, and the wings can take a bright color that stands out against the sky.

A happy dragon with two horns and wide wings sits on a heap of treasure that fills the bottom of the page. The pile is made of round coins, cut gems and a crown, and an open treasure chest sits at the right side. The dragon has a ridged belly and a big smile. This is the busiest page in the dragon collection, because every coin is its own small shape. Gold, silver and bright gem colors make the pile shine, while the dragon can be green, red or purple. Kids around 7 and up can take their time with colored pencils, and younger kids can start with the dragon.

A friendly dragon glides over a range of pointed mountains, with large wings spread and a long tail that curls at the end. A sun with rays shines in the top corner, and a few clouds drift across the sky. The wings are divided into panels, which gives kids a place for two or three colors, and the body has a row of ridges down the belly. The mountains are big open shapes for gray, blue or brown, and the sky can stay white or turn light blue. The whole dragon fits on the page, with room around it. It is a medium page that suits ages 5 and up.

A sleepy dragon curls into a round shape with its eyes closed, its chin resting on its front paws and its tail wrapped around the whole body. Its small wings are folded against its sides, and several stars decorate the curve of the tail. Everything on the page is large and simple, with one clear outline and no background, so this is one of the easiest dragon pages and a good fit for toddlers and preschoolers. Soft colors such as lavender, light green or blue make it feel calm, and the stars can be yellow. It also makes a nice page to color before bedtime.

A friendly dragon with a round belly, little horns and small wings sits beside a campfire. One paw holds a long stick with a puffy marshmallow on the end, held just above the flames. A log sits beside the fire and a few small logs are stacked under it. The dragon has a big smile and wide eyes, with no sharp teeth anywhere. Kids can color the dragon any bright scale color, then add orange and yellow to the flames and a golden brown to the marshmallow. The shapes are large and the lines are thick, so the page works for ages 3 and up, and it fits a camping week or a cozy storytime.

A smiling dragon and a young knight stand side by side, holding hands like old friends. The dragon has two small horns, a striped belly and a curled tail, and the knight wears a helmet, armor with a belt and boots, and holds a plain round shield. Nobody is fighting, and the picture is meant to be a friendship scene. Kids can color the armor silver and gray or use any colors they like, then pick scale colors for the dragon. The shield is a big empty space that is good for a pattern or a made-up crest. The page suits ages 4 and up and goes well with a fairy tale or castle theme.

A big mama dragon curls her body into a round shape around three tiny baby dragons. One baby sits on her back with its wings spread, and two more cuddle together in front of her belly. Each baby has a round face, big eyes and a small smile, and the mama has two horns and a gentle look. The page is built from large curved shapes, so it is easy to color, and kids can give the babies different colors to tell them apart. It is a nice pick for a family or Mother's Day theme, and it works well for ages 3 to 6 who like baby animals.

A happy dragon with small wings and two horns sits under a rocky cave arch. On both sides of it, big pointed crystals grow up from the ground, and a few cut gems lie scattered in front. Every crystal is a closed shape with flat faces, so kids can fill each one with a different color and make the cave glow. The dragon sits in the middle with a wide smile and a striped belly, and the cave wall has a few simple cracks. The page suits ages 4 and up, and it pairs well with a rock and mineral lesson or a treasure-hunt theme.
