Melted Snowman Coloring Page
Sometimes when you’re busy, you just need something easy and mess-free to keep the kids entertained. I keep a folder of printable coloring pages—mostly Pokémon, mandalas, animals, Star Wars, and nature-inspired—on my computer for quick printing.
Our new melted snowman coloring page can be just that: a quick and easy coloring page. But if your kids are feeling a little more crafty, they can cut it out and glue it onto bright cardstock.
It’s the perfect coloring page for the late winter cycle of freeze (fresh snow) and thaw (melting snow). Pair this craft with:
- Books about winter or spring
- A melting snowman writing prompt
- Searching for signs of spring on a late winter nature walk
- Melting snowman observation

Why Is Coloring Important for Kids
Coloring is important for kids because it helps develop hand strength, fine-motor skills, creativity, and hand-eye coordination.
Because it quiets the brain’s amygdala (the part of the brain that amplifies emotions), coloring has also been linked to reduced stress and increased mindfulness and focus.
