This Fall collection of Color by Numbers is a great activity set for kids of all ages.
Coloring is one of my favorite things to do. I literally LOVE doodling and the coloring in the designs. These darling fall designs are perfect for using in the classroom, at home and at parties. They are fun to print out and gift with a fun pack of crayons or colored pencils. They would even be fun on a fall table for a pre-dinner activity. You can download them below.
Reasons for Kids to Color
Coloring does lots of great things for kids. It supports the development of their fine motor skills for starters. In addition to the growth benefit, coloring can be a creative outlet that is calming too. It offers a great way to create a brain break when things feel overwhelming.
The pumpkin design is adorable and perfect to for adding to Halloween boo bags. It would be fun to do at a classroom Halloween party too.
Reasons for Adults to Color
Research shows that coloring can reduce anxiety and depression. The repetitive movements can be calming. The completed colored design can create a feeling of accomplishment. Adding coloring to the nightly routine can help sleep. The easing of stress and promoting of relaxation can support healthy zzzzs.
This apple design is so cute. It would be fun all fall long.

You might have seen this list from me before but I think it is worth sharing over and over. Sometimes the people in the back need to hear things a few times, right? There are so many great ways to use free printables. Here are some of my favorites.
- Print them and mail in an envelope with a stamp. Snail mail rocks.
- Batch some up to make an activity book. This is great for a road trip!
- Print and use at a place setting on the table to create a conversation starter.
- Add them to goody bags. By the way, goody bags are not just for birthday parties.
- Package them up with your favorite markers and crayons to give as a gift.
- Drop a few off at the local coffee shop with fun pencils to spread some happy.
- Cut them up to make cards, gift wrap and decorations.
