Extra Coloring Ideas & Turtle Facts
Coloring isn’t just about filling in shapes, it’s a way to unwind, explore new ideas, and even learn something unexpected.
Turtles have been around since the time of the dinosaurs, and they’re still a favorite for artists and animal fans alike. As you color, you might notice how a turtle’s shell has many patterns and shapes.
Try using different greens, browns, or even some colors you dream up. Some people like to shade gently to make shells look round, while others go bold with bright, solid colors.
If you’re coloring with kids, make it a little adventure. Draw extra details together, maybe a tiny school of fish, some seaweed, or even a little boat in the distance.
You can swap ideas for what your turtle’s name might be, or where it’s heading next. For a change, use watercolors or soft pastels for backgrounds.
If you’re curious about turtles, here are a few things to talk about while you color:
- Turtles have been on Earth for more than 200 million years. [2]
- The pattern on each turtle’s shell is unique, a bit like a fingerprint.
- Some turtles, like leatherbacks, can cross entire oceans.
- Sea turtles help keep the oceans healthy by eating sea grass, which allows fish and other marine life to thrive.
- In many stories and cultures, turtles are symbols of patience and wisdom.
If you want to challenge yourself, try making your own turtle coloring page. Start with a simple oval for the shell and add your favorite shapes and patterns. You can even turn it into a family project—each person can color their own turtle and create a “turtle parade” on the fridge or wall.
