Free Mr. Peabody & Sherman Coloring Pages: 44 printable PDF designs from DreamWorks’ time-travel comedy, featuring the genius beagle Mr. Peabody reading, studying Egypt, and smiling in his bow tie, his adopted son Sherman at school and on adventures, their classmate-turned-friend Penny Peterson, Marie Antoinette in the French Revolution, the trio dressed as ancient Egyptians, the WABAC time machine, and a driving scene. Two connect-the-dots sheets for Penny and Mr. Peabody add a counting challenge. PDF files cost nothing for any of them, and the same line art opens on a tablet or laptop for digital coloring.
Mr. Peabody & Sherman reached American theaters on March 7, 2014. Rob Minkoff, co-director of Disney’s The Lion King, directed it for DreamWorks Animation, and 20th Century Fox released it. The film brings back “Peabody’s Improbable History,” a cartoon segment created by Ted Key for The Rocky and Bullwinkle Show in the 1960s, in which a brilliant dog and his boy visit famous moments in history. Ty Burrell voices Mr. Peabody, Max Charles voices Sherman, and Ariel Winter voices Penny. The movie earned about $275 million worldwide and inspired the Netflix series The Mr. Peabody and Sherman Show in 2015.
Faces here are drawn with clean, simple lines. Hence, the portrait and face sheets suit younger colorists, while the Egyptian costume, French Revolution, and WABAC pages add headdresses, gowns, and machinery for kids who enjoy detail. Many pages pair two or three characters, which helps children practice keeping each character’s colors consistent.
What’s Inside This Collection
Sherman and Mr. Peabody dominate the 44 designs, with Penny, Marie Antoinette, Egypt scenes, and the WABAC completing the set.
Mr. Peabody
Mr. Peabody smiles, reads a book, studies Egypt, poses in a close-up face, and looks cute in several portraits. Keep his coat bright White touched with pale Gray in the folds, make his round glasses Black, and give him his signature Red bow tie.
Sherman
Sherman looks cool, happy, and curious, sits in class, and appears in a close-up. Try bright orange-red for his hair, Black round glasses, and a White shirt with Blue shorts to match his classic look.
Penny Peterson
Penny gets angry, sits in school, and joins Sherman and Mr. Peabody on adventures, plus her own connect-the-dots sheet. Pick Golden Yellow for her hair and a cheerful Pink or Purple outfit so she stands out next to Sherman.
Egypt and French Revolution Scenes
Mr. Peabody studies Egypt, the trio dresses as Egyptians, Peabody and Sherman get caught in Egypt, and Marie Antoinette appears on her own and with Sherman. Use Gold, Turquoise, and Lapis Blue for Egyptian headdresses and collars, and soft Powder Blue or Pink with White lace for Marie Antoinette’s grand gown.
The WABAC and Driving Pages
Sherman and Penny ride in the WABAC, the time machine has its own page, and Peabody and Sherman go for a drive. Give the WABAC Silver panels, Red buttons, and glowing Yellow lights, and add swirling Blue and Purple streaks to show time travel.
Pairs and Group Pages
Many pages show Peabody and Sherman together or the trio side by side. Keep Peabody White, Sherman’s hair Orange Red, and Penny’s hair Yellow on every page so the friends are easy to recognize.
What Mr. Peabody & Sherman Coloring Pages Do
Sparking curiosity about history. Each adventure lands the characters in a famous moment, from ancient Egypt to the French Revolution. Coloring these scenes encourages children to ask who Marie Antoinette was or why Egyptians wore golden collars. A quick library visit or online search can follow every page.
Building handwriting readiness. Small fingers grow stronger and steadier with regular coloring, since the American Academy of Pediatrics milestones treat ages 2 to 7 as the prime fine motor years. Peabody’s round glasses and Sherman’s simple outfits suit beginners, while headdresses and lace challenge older kids.
Unwinding with friendly characters. Adult volunteers grew calmer after structured coloring in a 2005 work that appeared in the Art Therapy Journal. The gentle humor of a dog and his son makes these pages easy to relax with, especially in the evening.
Celebrating families of every kind. Mr. Peabody adopted Sherman and loves him deeply, even though others doubt that a dog can raise a boy. These pages open warm conversations about adoption, love, and how families can look different. Kids can sketch their own household on the reverse side once they finish.
How to Color Mr. Peabody & Sherman Pages Well
- White coat: Let most of Mr. Peabody’s coat stay paper white, adding light Gray only along his outline for shape.
- Round glasses: Color both characters’ frames Black and leave a small white glint on each lens.
- Bright hair: Use Orange Red for Sherman and Yellow for Penny, adding a darker streak for depth.
- Egyptian gold: Layer Yellow under Gold or Metallic crayons for shining jewelry.
- Time travel effects: Add swirling stripes of Blue, Purple, and White around the WABAC.
- Historical backgrounds: Sketch pyramids, palm trees, or a palace behind characters to set the scene.
