This first coloring page features a stack of 3 happy jack-o-lanterns sitting on a bed of fallen leaves. The top pumpkin is wearing an adorable scarecrow hat with a ribbon and flower.
Next up is one traditional jack-o-lantern with a cute curved stem. This one will make a great addition to a Halloween read-aloud.
This next coloring page features 3 smiling jack-o-lanterns in a pumpkin field. The field is surrounded by trees, greenery, and fallen leaves on the ground. Overhead, fluffy white clouds brighten the sky.
Continuing on, you’ll find an adorable cat happily tucked inside a jack-o-lantern with its head and paws peeking out over the top. This one is so adorable, it’s no wonder cats are such popular pets.
This page features a happy witch jack-o-lantern with an oversized pointed hat. Of course, no witch’s hat would be complete without the classic buckle. As an added touch, swirling fall leaves float down from overhead.
The sixth coloring sheet features a collection of 5 jack-o-lanterns each with a different smiling face. They are all perched atop a rustic farm fence.
You’ve seen the cat above, but this one may actually be even adorable. Here a fluffy puppy happily sits inside the smiling pumpkin with greenery nestled all around.
And finally, here we have a happy and plump jack-o-lantern sitting on a lush bed of fallen leaves. An almost bare tree towers overhead. This one definitely gives off a great fall vibe.
Creative Ways to Use These Coloring Sheets
Set your print sizing to 50% under the settings tab to produce 1/2 size coloring sheets. After the sheets are fully colored in, cut them out and glue each one to a piece of construction paper to make festive Halloween cards for friends or family.
You can also transform these pages into cute holiday puzzles by cutting them into pieces after they are fully colored. Of course, you should make sure your child is on board with cutting up their artwork before diving into this project.
You can also use these jack-o-lantern printables for a fun watercolor activity. Simply print them on non-glossy cardstock, which is typically absorbent enough to hold watercolor paints. If you’re not a fan of the typical watercolor pallets, these liquid watercolor paints are a great alternative.
Adapting For Differing Abilities
For kids with muscle tone or grasping issues, there are a variety of different tools you can try. This foam tubing helps bulk up the drawing tool handles, which makes them easier to grab.
Some other great (and colorful) alternatives are these add-on grips. Essentially they are hand straps to help secure the drawing tool to the hand.
Of course, you can always have a student add colors to these pages using a dot marker. They come ready-made with a thick grip. Just keep in mind that these will be much heavier and can cause students to fatigue earlier when compared to the options above.
No matter which options you choose, these jack-o-lantern coloring pages for kids are sure to be a big hit in your home or classroom!
