More Fun Ways To Use This Kids Going to School Coloring Page
Make a Beginning-of-the-Year Time Capsule
After the school children coloring page is finished, have kids flip it over and write:
- Their grade
- Their age
- Favorite subject
- What they’re most excited about this year
- One thing they want to learn
- Something they hope they’ll be able to do by the end of the school year
Add their name and date, then tuck the page away.
Bring it back out during the final week of school and let them see how much changed. 🥹💖
This turns a simple school supplies coloring page into an actual school-year keepsake. 🙏
Turn the Cute Student Coloring Page Into an I-Spy Game
There are SO many tiny details hidden throughout this page that you can easily turn it into a school-themed I-Spy activity too!
Have kids hunt for specific things like…
- Hearts – 63
- Stars – 22
- Bows – 31
- Flowers – 9
You could even have one child secretly choose an object and give clues while everyone else tries to find it.
Create a “We Belong Here” Classroom Wall
Have every student color their own copy and write their first name on the back of the easy back-to-school coloring page and have them finish the sentence:
“One thing I can bring to our class this year is…”
Kindness, encouragement, creativity, helping others, listening, working hard, making people laugh…whatever represents them best!
Hang all the finished pages together to create a super cute classroom welcome display that also helps reinforce that every student contributes something valuable. ❤️
Texture Art: School Bus Coloring Page Printable
For kids who are riding the school bus for the first time, it can be extremely scary. To help make the transition a little easier, fill the school bus in using crushed cereal, glitter, puff paint, or tissue paper instead of crayons for a fun 3D effect.
Window Clings
Trace the kawaii students and the school bus using puffy paint on a sheet of wax paper to create reusable DIY decorations for the classroom
Backpack Tags For Preschoolers
Use this as a preschool back-to-school coloring page and cut out the colored kawaii kids and the giant pencil, laminate them, and punch a hole at the top to create custom name tags for their gear.
• Other printables are either functional OR cute. I bridge the gap between the two. Since I'm a single mom and don't have time to mess around and am a kid at heart, I love something that actually propels me forward and gets the job done quickly, while still having that super cute vibe I'm known for.
• I'm a graphic designer FIRST. This means my printables, whether free or paid for, will always be of the highest quality and print crisp and clear on any printer.
• I love what I do and I do the work myself. I'm not hiring these out. This is my life, my hobby, my passion, my heart.
• My fans are obsessed with my work. To date, I've made over $23M on printables alone (organically) in the past 8 years.
Yes! Except for some large binders, all printables on the blog are 100% free for personal use. I make these because I genuinely want you to have something cute and helpful right now without having to spend a dime. You deserve a life that feels more peaceful, more organized, and more you, and if a simple printable can make your day feel lighter, I am so happy to give that to you.
Printables, graphics, backgrounds, SVGs, fonts, and design elements on this site are for personal use only. You may not alter them or redistribute them for free or monetary gain without written consent from the author, Sarah Titus. If you want to share these resources with others, please share the link to the blog post. Teachers & Churches: You may share these with your classes, colleagues, and congregation as long as they are not edited in any way.
Absolutely! You're welcome to print as many copies as you need for your own students or church groups. I only ask that you do not edit them in any way (leaving the full copyright line in tact) or sell them or host the digital files on other websites.

• For best results, I recommend using standard 8.5"x11" white paper. Since these are professionally designed as high-resolution PDFs, they'll stay crisp and clear on any printer. To print, simply download the PDF to your device and open your printer settings. Select "Fit to Page" to ensure the printable looks perfect.
• If you're printing stickers, I have a tutorial here.
