There is something so cozy about gathering around the table with a fresh stack of Thanksgiving coloring pages.
Thanksgiving is often filled with food and family, but it is the little quiet moments that make it feel extra special.
A box of crayons, a few cheerful pictures, and kids happily coloring together is such a simple joy.
These printable pages are designed to capture that feeling! Each one features a festive image with a traceable word underneath so children can color and practice handwriting at the same time.
It is an easy tradition to start and one that adds just the right touch of calm and creativity to your Thanksgiving celebrations.
Cute Thanksgiving Coloring Pages
When I designed this set, I wanted the pages to feel lighthearted and approachable.
No tiny, complicated details. Just cute and cheerful pictures kids will recognize right away.
You will find:
Turkeys with wide feathers
Slices of pumpkin pie
A classic pilgrim hat
Each picture has a matching traceable word underneath. This makes it easy for kids to connect what they are coloring with what they are writing.
It is handwriting practice that feels like play.
✨ Tip: For safe and colorful supplies, I like these non toxic crayons. They glide smoothly, have bright colors, and are perfect for little artists!
Fall Crafts for Kids and Toddlers
Coloring pages may seem simple, but they fit beautifully into the bigger world of fall crafts for kids.
Parents and teachers are always looking for easy, budget friendly activities. These printables check all the boxes.
For toddlers and preschoolers, tracing helps with fine motor skills and early writing.
For slightly older kids, it builds confidence with spelling and vocabulary.
You can also pair these pages with other fall crafts:
Apple stamping
Imagine a fall activity basket with crayons, these printables, a stack of picture books, and maybe a few pinecones or leaves from outside.
Suddenly, you have an entire afternoon of seasonal fun with no extra prep.
Happy Thanksgiving Coloring Page
One of my favorite pages in the set is the Happy Thanksgiving design.
It has big bubble letters that kids can trace, color, and decorate.
This page makes the sweetest keepsake. Children can color the letters, add little patterns or pumpkins around the edges, and feel proud that they traced the entire phrase on their own.
When you hang these finished pages on the fridge or wall, they double as decorations made with love.

Why Parents Love Coloring Pages
The beauty of coloring pages is in their simplicity.
They are quick to set up, affordable, and work for a wide range of ages.
Parents love them because they keep kids entertained without screens. Children love them because they get to be creative on their own terms.
These Thanksgiving coloring pages add something extra with handwriting practice.
Kids are not just coloring a turkey or a slice of pie. They are tracing the word as well.
That little step helps with:
Confidence in early writing
Learning seasonal vocabulary
Building fine motor skills
Practicing focus and patience
And maybe the sweetest part? Seeing the pride on your child’s face when they show off the word they traced all by themselves.
