5 Interesting Activities To Do With Lion Coloring Pages

These activities not only make coloring more engaging but also promote learning about lions, encourage storytelling, and develop artistic skills.

Create A Lion Mask

Lion masks from coloring pages are a creative and fun activity, especially for kids who love these majestic animals. You will print coloring pages with the lion’s head or face clearly visible. Then, let your child be creative and color the lion picture to his liking. Encourage your child to use many different colors to create a lively and eye-catching mask.

Once colored, carefully cut along the outline of the lion’s face. You can support your baby if needed. Use glue or a glue gun to glue the lion mask onto the cardboard. This makes the mask stronger and more durable. Cut according to the shape of the glued lion mask, leaving some space around the border. Use a long stick to stick on the back of the lion mask to create a handle. 

You can cut two holes on both sides of the eyes to see the road. Once you’ve completed your lion mask, it’s time for fun and adventure. Children can wear masks and transform into the king of the forest, participate in role-playing games, perform arts, or have fun with friends.

Turn Into A Lion Finger Puppet

Like the mask, the lion finger puppet will make children extremely excited. You will choose full-body images of lions, maybe male lions, cubs, or ones in a funny cartoon style. Then, cut along the outline of the lion shape. You can assist children in this step if they are young. 

At the bottom of the foot, use a hole puncher to create two circles large enough to fit your fingers into. You can also make a tape circle on the outside without cutting a hole. When finished, children can put their fingers in the circle and control the lion’s movements, creating exciting stories.

Make A Lion-Themed Mobile Toy

A lion-shaped mobile toy made from coloring pages is a great idea to decorate your child’s room while stimulating your child’s vision and imagination. You can print many different lion images to create diversity for the mobile toy. 

After the lion shapes have been colored, cut them out along the edges and glue them to a piece of cardboard to create sturdiness. You can cut out the lion shapes again to separate them from the cardboard. Use a needle and thread or a glue gun to attach wire or wool to the head of each lion figure. The length of the hanging strap can vary to create a beautiful moving effect. 

Tie or glue lion-shaped hanging ropes to the circle as a frame. You can distribute the lion shapes evenly or according to your baby’s preference. Tie a long piece of string to the circle to hang the mobile toy from the ceiling, crib, or wherever you want.

Design A Wall Art Picture

This idea will make coloring more fun than ever. You will print a coloring page of the lion in its settings or portrait in a large format, perhaps A3 or larger. Coloring is the most important step, let your child be creative with his own colors and coloring style. Encourage children to use many different colors, mix colors, and create special effects to make the painting more artistic. 

After this step, you will frame and hang the picture on the wall, like the example below. Wooden frames, plastic frames, or metal frames are your options. You can hang it in a central position as a highlight or combine it with other paintings to create an art collection.

Play Memory Game

This is a great way to combine learning and play, helping your baby practice memory while developing observation and concentration abilities. You can choose images of lions in various poses, expressions, or activities to increase variety and attract your baby’s attention. 

If children like, let them color the pictures themselves before starting the game. This helps children become familiar with the images and increases excitement. After finishing coloring, arrange the colored lion pictures on the table or floor in a horizontal row or any shape. Let children observe for a short period of time, depending on their age and ability to concentrate. 

Then, take away a coloring page and ask your child: “Which lion has disappeared?”. Children will try to remember and point out the coloring page that was taken away. Instead of taking away a picture, you can swap or add a new one. If you play with many children, you can divide into teams and compete to see which team guesses more correctly.

Sharing your lion coloring page creations on social media is a great way to spread joy and inspire lion and art lovers. You can share on platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and Pinterest or in groups and forums with similar interests. We encourage you to share the story behind the work: How did your child color it?
