How to Print These Funny Colouring Sheets
Printing is quick and easy. Open the sheet you want, download it, and print it at home or at school.
For best results, print on A4 paper first — every design is sized to fill an A4 page nicely. If you are printing in the United States, choose US Letter paper instead, and the sheets will still fit well. In your printer settings, select “fit to page” so nothing gets cut off at the edges.
Plain white paper works perfectly with crayons, pencils and felt-tip pens. If your child loves chunky markers, thicker paper or card helps stop colours showing through. Print spare copies of the favourites — the silliest pages always get coloured twice.
The 14 Funny Colouring Pages
1. Cat Squeezed Into a Tiny Box
Cats love boxes, and this one has squeezed itself into a box that is far too small, with its paws, ears and tail poking out in every direction. The squished-up pose and the cat’s very pleased face make this one of the funniest pages in the set. Colouring tip: give the box a bright pattern, then colour the cat in a completely different shade so it really stands out.
2. Dog Wearing Big Glasses
This cheerful dog is wearing a pair of enormous round glasses that make its eyes look extra big and extra goofy. It is a simple, bold design that younger kids will love. Colouring tip: colour the glasses frames in a rainbow of colours, and add a spotty or stripy pattern to the dog’s collar.
3. Sloth Riding a Scooter
Sloths are famous for moving slowly, which is exactly why this one is so funny — it is riding a scooter, scarf flapping behind it, in no hurry at all. The big simple shapes make it a relaxing page to colour. Colouring tip: use soft browns and greys for the sloth, then make the scooter as bright and speedy-looking as you can.
4. Llama in Sunglasses
Too cool for school, this fluffy llama is wearing big sunglasses and striking a very serious pose. It is one of our favourite funny animal colouring pages because the llama looks so proud of itself. Colouring tip: keep the llama’s wool creamy white or soft pastel, then go wild with neon colours for the sunglasses.
5. Dinosaur Eating a Giant Sandwich
This friendly dinosaur has found a sandwich almost as big as it is, piled high with lettuce, cheese and tomato, and it is taking an enormous bite. Little dinosaur fans will giggle at the crumbs flying everywhere. Colouring tip: colour each sandwich layer a different colour, and try a funny colour like purple or blue for the dinosaur itself.
6. Cow in a Tutu
Ready for the ballet, this happy cow is wearing a frilly tutu and standing on tiptoe with a big smile. The mix of a farm animal and a dance outfit makes this page pure silliness. Colouring tip: a pink or rainbow tutu looks wonderful against the cow’s black and white patches.
7. Penguin on a Beach Holiday
Penguins belong in the snow, but this one has packed its sunglasses and gone on a beach holiday, complete with a sun hat and a deckchair. It is a topsy-turvy idea that kids find hilarious. Colouring tip: use icy blues and whites for the penguin, then hot yellows and oranges for the beach around it.
8. Octopus Juggling
With eight arms, an octopus is the perfect juggler, and this one is keeping lots of balls in the air at once with a very proud grin. Counting the arms and the balls is part of the fun. Colouring tip: colour each arm a different colour, or give every juggling ball its own pattern of spots and stripes.
9. Banana Surfing a Wave
This sporty banana has peeled back its skin like a jacket and is surfing a giant curly wave with its arms in the air. It is one of the silliest food pictures we have ever made. Colouring tip: bright yellow for the banana, deep blues and greens for the wave, and white for the splashy foam.
10. Frog Having a Bubble Bath
Bath time has never looked this relaxing: a happy frog is sitting in a tub piled high with bubbles, wearing a shower cap and holding a rubber duck. The bubbles are lovely big circles that are very satisfying to colour. Colouring tip: leave some bubbles white and shiny, and colour others in soft pastel blues, pinks and purples.
11. Hamster Lifting Weights
This tiny hamster is lifting a weight that looks far too heavy for it, with a very determined face and wobbly little arms. It is a great page for talking about trying hard and being brave. Colouring tip: warm orange and brown shades suit the hamster, and a bold red or gold weight makes it look extra strong.
12. Giraffe With a Very Long Scarf
A giraffe already has a very long neck, so it needs a very, very long scarf — and this one wraps round and round and trails along the floor. Following the scarf’s winding path across the page is half the fun. Colouring tip: colour the scarf in repeating stripes of your favourite colours, changing colour every time it wraps around.
13. Animal Party Scene
All the animals have come together for a party in this detailed scene, with dancing, bunting, balloons, music and party hats everywhere you look. Older kids will enjoy finding all the little jokes hidden in the picture. Colouring tip: take your time and colour one animal at a time, using the brightest party colours you own.
14. Silly Face
The easiest page in the collection is one big silly face, with a huge grin, wobbly eyes and its tongue sticking out. The thick lines and big spaces make it perfect for toddlers and very young children. Colouring tip: there are no rules here — a green face with purple hair is exactly right for this page.
Funny Facts to Make You Giggle
Laughing is good for you. Having a good laugh can make you feel happier and more relaxed, which is a great reason to share a joke while you colour.
Sloths move very slowly. Sloths are some of the slowest animals in the world. They move so slowly that algae can grow in their fur, which sometimes gives them a slightly green tinge.
Penguins cannot fly, but they are great swimmers. A penguin’s wings work like flippers, and they zoom through the water instead. That is why our penguin is much happier on its beach holiday than in the air.
An octopus has eight arms. The clue is in the name: “octo” means eight. An octopus also has three hearts and blue blood, which makes it one of the most amazing animals in the sea.
Giraffes have the same number of neck bones as people. A giraffe’s neck is very long, but it has just seven neck bones — exactly the same number as you. Each giraffe bone is simply much, much bigger.
Silly Activity Ideas
Tell a joke about each picture. When a page is finished, everyone has to invent a joke or a funny caption for it. Why did the cow wear a tutu? Your family gets to decide.
Invent a funny name for every animal. Give each coloured animal a daft name, like Captain Whiskers the cat or Professor Slothington the scooter rider, and write it proudly at the top of the page.
Create your own silly animal mash-up. Draw two animals mixed together — half giraffe, half penguin, perhaps — then colour it in the silliest colours you can find. This is a brilliant way to invent your own funny colouring sheets at home.
Have a silly-faces contest. Copy the Silly Face page, pull your funniest face in the mirror, then try to draw it. The wobbliest, giggliest face wins.
Colouring Tips for Silly Pages
Silly pictures deserve silly colours, so forget about how things look in real life. Colour the sky green, give the cow purple patches, or make the banana blue — the dafter, the better.
Repeating patterns work brilliantly on these pages. Try spots on the dog’s collar, stripes on the giraffe’s scarf, checks on the picnic blanket in the party scene, and zigzags on the dinosaur’s sandwich box.
Gel pens and glitter pens are perfect for the funny details, like the llama’s sunglasses, the octopus’s juggling balls and the frog’s bubbles. Colour a second copy for a friend — funny pages are made for sharing.
