5 Exciting Activities For Using School Bus Coloring Pages

Coloring school buses is not simply entertaining; it also benefits children’s development. Here are five fun activities you can do with your baby using bus coloring pictures:

Making A School Bus Photo Frame

This idea is a great way to recycle and create meaningful crafts. You can use the finished coloring pages or let your child color them. Choose cardboard that matches the color of the bus for the background. 

After coloring, you will cut the colored bus image from the page. Choose a piece of cardboard that is slightly larger than the bus image. Glue the cut-out bus image onto the cardboard, ensuring the edges are firmly attached. 

Cut small rectangles out of cardboard just behind the bus windows. This will be the section where you can place your photos. To make the photo frame more durable, you can apply a layer of gloss paint to the surface. You refer to the image below for easier visualization.

Creating A 3D Paper School Bus

You must print the bus model on yellow cardboard to start this idea. If you don’t have it, use white paper and color it to your liking. The next step is to use scissors to cut along the contour. 

On bus models, lines often indicate folding positions. Use a ruler and pencil to draw these lines boldly and then fold them accordingly. Then, glue the marked edges of the paper to form the shape of the bus. Be sure to stick it firmly so the bus doesn’t come off. 

You can make small rectangles for windows and stick them on the car body. You will cut out circles for the wheels and glue them to the bottom of the car. 

Cut out the shape of the “STOP” sign and stick it on the back of the vehicle. You can decorate other details, such as headlights and taillights, with colored paper or other decorative materials.

Turning Into A Pen Box

This activity helps children develop their creativity and is a useful product for daily use. You must print a pre-printed 3D school bus model or multiple copies to create a depth effect. Choose a sturdy box of the appropriate size. 

You can use a shoe, cookie, or any other box type. Cut off the box lid to create a place for the pen. Use a pencil and ruler to draw lines on the box to make the shape of the bus. Use yellow to color the body of the car. 

You will then cut out details from the bus coloring page, such as the windows, wheels, and “STOP” sign, and glue them onto the box. Finally, cardboard was used to cut partitions and divide the box into small compartments for pens. With these instructions, you and your children will have hours of fun and creativity when making unique bus-shaped pencil boxes together.

Decorating A Notebook Cover

The school bus image would be a great highlight for a child’s notebook cover. With these ideas, children will have a lovely and colorful notebook. First, you can guide children to use crayons and markers to color and decorate the bus image.

The next step is to cut the bus image from the coloring page and then paste it directly onto the notebook page. You can choose any position on the notebook cover, depending on your preferences. You can also cut the bus shape into small pieces and glue them together in a different shape.

Creating A Memory Math Game

 Creating a memory math game using school bus puzzle pieces is creative. This is a fun way to help children learn math while practicing memory. You can print many different bus models and let your children color them. 

Each body part will have a simple calculation. Each part of the car’s roof will have the corresponding calculation result. Cut the body and roof sections according to the bus shape to fit snugly when assembled. Color the puzzle pieces and write each part’s corresponding calculations and results. 

Each car body part will have a roof part that corresponds to the calculation result. You can create many different pairs of buses with other calculations to increase the game’s difficulty. When playing, you will mix all the puzzle pieces. Players take turns finding and matching pairs of buses with corresponding calculations and results.
