Free The Rescuers Coloring Pages: 32 printable PDF designs of Bernard and Miss Bianca, the mouse heroes of Disney’s 1977 animated classic, along with Jake, Orville, Evinrude, and other characters from the film. The Rescuers follows two members of the Rescue Aid Society, an international mouse organization, as they set out to rescue a kidnapped orphan named Penny. Each page can be downloaded as a PDF to print or colored online in the browser.
Based on the books by Margery Sharp, The Rescuers was directed by Wolfgang Reitherman, John Lounsbery, and Art Stevens, and released in theaters on June 22, 1977. The story contrasts Bernard, a modest janitor-turned-hero, with Miss Bianca, the elegant Hungarian ambassador for the Rescue Aid Society, as the two work together on their first mission.
This collection spans 32 pages, ranging from solo character portraits to full duo and group scenes.
What’s Inside This Collection
The 32 designs group into three categories, from solo portraits to ensemble scenes.
Main Character Portraits
Several pages focus on Bianca, Bernard, Jake, Orville, Evinrude, and other individual characters in a range of poses.
Duo and Partner Scenes
A number of designs show Bernard and Bianca together, including holding hands, sheltering under an umbrella, or joined by Jake and Evinrude.
Ensemble and Group Pages
A few pages bring together a wider cast for a fuller composition from the film.
What The Rescuers Coloring Pages Do
Careful strokes for small mouse features and fine detail. Filling in Bernard and Bianca’s delicate mouse features and Evinrude’s dragonfly wings without crossing the lines calls for controlled, contained pencil movement, and the American Academy of Pediatrics identifies fine motor skill development as a core benefit of structured coloring for children ages 2 through 7.
An easy way to talk about teamwork and courage. Since the story follows two very different mice working together on a rescue mission, coloring a page alongside a short conversation about teamwork gives families and classrooms a natural discussion topic.
A steady, repeatable rhythm. A 2005 study in the Art Therapy Journal documented measurable reductions in anxiety following structured coloring sessions, and filling in a calm character portrait gives colorists that same steady, low-pressure rhythm.
A window into classic animation. Because The Rescuers is a landmark 1977 Disney film, coloring these pages gives colorists a natural opening to learn about classic hand-drawn animation history.
