Dragon coloring pages

12 coloring pages

Our dragons are friendly, a bit clumsy and never scary. One has hiccups and puffs smoke with every one of them, one hides behind a rock from a very small mouse, one dries the laundry with warm breath, and one sleeps curled around a castle tower like an enormous cat.

The simple dragons with big spaces work from about age 3; the scenes with castles, knights and treasure piles suit kids ages 5 to 8. Scales are the best part — color them one by one or all in one go.

How to print the coloring page

Click “Print” and only the picture goes on the sheet, without the rest of the page. To keep the file for later, download the PDF: it's already set up with a margin, so the printer won't cut anything off.

What to do with a finished picture

Dragon scales

Color the scales in rows, each row a different shade, so the dragon ends up looking like a rainbow.

Standing dragon

Cut the dragon out along the outline and fold a flap at the bottom so it stands up on the table.

Egg surprise

Color the hatching egg, cut it in half along the crack and glue a paper dragon inside, so it opens.

Questions from parents

Are these dragons scary?

No. Our dragons are round, friendly and mostly busy with everyday things: hiccups, laundry, baths and birthday candles.

What ages are dragon coloring pages for?

The simple ones already work for three-year-olds. Scenes with knights, castles and treasure suit kids ages 5 to 8.

How do I print without anything getting cut off?

The PDF is the safest option since it already has margins. The “Print” button also prints only the picture.
