Coloring Pages Featuring Mermaids and Ocean Animals
The 30 mermaid coloring pages in this book are sure to provide hours of fun for kids. The pages feature different mermaids in a variety of settings and activities.
There are also a few silly and fun pages thrown in for good measure. With so many different options, kids are sure to find a page that they’ll love.
Mermaid Riding a Seahorse
Seahorses and mermaids, what a wonderful combination. Both are often portrayed as super colorful and contrasted against different shades of blue – this is one very inspiring page to color!
Mermaid Riding a Sea Turtle
I just adore how the mermaid is hitching a ride on her turtle friend, giving him a cheeky wave as he glides through the sea. This page is calling for blues, aquas and shades of green – how will your Arty Crafty Kids color the mermaid to help her pop from the page?
Arty Crafty Kids can also use our flow drawing technique to learn how to draw a sea turtle.
Mermaid Swimming with a Dolphin
Our next coloring page features a mermaid befriending a dolphin. They look so happy together. What colors could your Arty Crafty Kids use to portray their happiness?
Mermaid and Super Cute Jellyfish
Next we have the cutest jellyfish ever designed and with so many tentacles to color, this jellyfish could also be the most colorful jellyfish in the sea!
Playful Crab
The playful crab sheet is the first of a set of two coloring pages that needs a story! Here we have a crab and mermaid happily playing together, until…
Playful Crab Takes a Tumble
… the playful crab takes a tumble! Do you think the crab became a little too nippy?
Mermaid with her Sea Creature Friends
Our Ariel look-a-like has returned with her swordfish and fishy friends. This coloring page is bursting with underwater life and cannot wait to be complete with color!
Mermaid’s Finding Pearls and More Coloring Pages
Pearls are valued for their calming effects and are considered the ultimate symbol of wisdom and loyalty. It’s no wonder that our mermaids have chosen to adorn themselves in pearls and enjoy exploring the ocean floor looking for these precious objects.
Dancing in the Bubbles
Our next mermaid is ready for the party. Happy and clearly loving underwater life – what party colors would suit this lovely coloring sheet? Florescent marker pens would certainly make this party mermaid pop from the page!
Mermaid Inside a Clam
We have so far focused on the positive connotations of mermaid, as portrayed in popular culture, however myths and legends from around the world tell a very different story. Vanity is a feature of the mermaid that comes up time and time again. Get an overview of the myths and legends here.
Clutching a Pearl
Following from the previous coloring page, is it possible that the mermaid has taken something she shouldn’t have or has been surprised by another sea creature?
Singing on a Rock
This coloring page conjures up images of Ariel, singing one of her beautiful songs.
The Mermaid Finds a Pearl
It looks like our next mermaid is very pleased with her find and is perhaps gifting the pearl to a friend. What could the story behind this page be?
With the wavy background and open space, this would be a great page for exploring a medium outside of a crayon or pencil. Watercolor would work beautifully within the wave and could even be combined with a white crayon (as seen within our how to draw a jellyfish tutorial.)
Coloring Pages Featuring Mermaids and their Merchildren
The complete mermaid coloring book also features mermaids with their merchildren, enjoying ordinary moments that will be familiar to your own children.
Mother and Child Singing
Here, mother and child are enjoying a sing-song together. What songs to your children enjoying singing?
Mother and Child Swimming
The final mermaid coloring page present a mother and child swimming, chatting and explore the ocean floor. I wonder what they’re chatting about?
