Unicorn Coloring Pages for Young Children to color

 I decided to draw and post more coloring pages for young kids to color.

So today I am posting 3 ink drawings of Unicorns.

Unicorn Stallion and Colt at Overlook

The Unicorn daddy is showing his colt their domain. The colt is his son. A colt is a young male equine.

Unicorn Mare and Philly in a Valley

The Unicorn mommy is with her philly. The philly is her daughter. A Philly is a young female equine.

Fairy gives a Philly Unicorn an Apple

I should mention that Unicorns are like Fairies in that Unicorns are magical beings who are sentient. Unicorns and Fairies are friends - often best friends. 

Birds of Psalm 102 coloring pages

  In our study guide for Sunday School, we are on Psalm this week. 

Today's new coloring pages are the birds mentioned in Psalm 102.

Great White Pelican in the Wilderness

From Psalm 102:6

The Great White Pelican is the pelican from the Old World... that is, Europe, Asia, and Africa. It is the second-biggest flying bird. It has a wingspan of up to 11 feet 10 inches, or 360 cm. It feeds mostly on fish. It migrates great distances and lives in flocks - often large flocks. It often fishes in large groups. They are monogamous each breeding season, meaning they choose a different mate each season, but they mate with that chosen mate each year. 

Pharaoh Eagle Owl of the Desert

From Psalm 102:6

The Pharaoh Eagle Owl is generally a desert bird that lives in the deserts of North Africa and the Middle East. It is a medium-sized owl with a wingspan of up to 5 feet 6 inches, or around 140 cm. This owl nests in rocky cliffs and high-up caves. It has yellow eyes and tawny feathers with some darker spots.

Dead Sea Sparrow on a Housetop

Psalm 102:7

Dead Sea Sparrows live in the Middle East and therefore, of course, in Israel. It also lives in parts of Southwest Asia. It is a small bird with a short tail. They grow be up to 5 or so inches or around 13 cm. They are the sparrow Jesus talked about in his Sermon on the Mount. 

Now let's talk about why these birds are mentioned in Psalm 102.  This psalm is the prayer of a person going through trials. They are crying out to God. If David wrote it, then it would make sense that he would mention birds. After all, he was a shepherd out in Nature way before he was the King of Israel. Some scholars think the song was written after Israel was in captivity because it mentions Jerusalem in ruins. I suppose that may be correct. But maybe David was prophesying in this psalm about the later destruction of Jerusalem. There ARE prophecies in some parts of the Psalms. In any case, it is obvious that the composer of Psalm 102 appreciated birds. I can relate. My wife and I are "birders."

 

 NOTE: This set of drawings can be found in printable form by clicking on the button labeled "Religion." Then scroll down to the bottom of the Old Testament section. OR click on the button labeled "Birds." Then scroll down to the bottom of the list of bird titles.  Have fun coloring these. And take a look at Psalm 102. With my many trials, I found it relatable. 

 

2 Dinosaur Coloring Pages for Young Kids to color

Today's two new coloring page drawings I did are of 

two well-known dinosaurs. These are drawn for younger kids to color. 

For the past few days and for the next few days, I am posting simpler drawings I have done or am doing

for younger kids to color. Coloring is great for developing hand-eye coordination in young kids.

 T. rex and Pteranodon Kids meet a Mammal

I should say that this is a KID drawing, so it is NOT a dinosaur and a pterosaur meeting and eating a mammal. Interspecies friends ARE seen sometimes in our modern natural world. For example, ravens and wolves play and work together.

Didelphodon is the name of the mammal. It was about as big as a badger. It probably was active at night, so it was probably nocturnal. You probably recognize the T. rex and the Pteranodon. T. rex was a dinosaur, but Pteranodon was a Pterosaur or flying reptile. These flying reptiles are also called Pterosaurs. Pterosaurs are NOT flying dinosaurs. The Pteranodon and Triceratops are both juveniles or "kids," but the Didelphodon is an adult animal. 

Notice the volcano. Volcanic activity was particularly high in the Late Cretaceous Period when these animals lived. 

These animals all lived in the Cretaceous in North America. Underground you see a fossilized skeleton of a Stegosaurus... an armored dino of the Jurassic Period. Even deeper, you see the skeleton of a non-dinosaur that is sometimes confused with dinosaurs. It is buried deeper because it lived BEFORE the dinosaurs. This non-dinosaur is a Dimetrodon from the Permian Period of the Paleozoic Era. The Paleozoic Era was BEFORE the Mesozoic Era. The Mesozoic Era was the era of the dinosaurs. 

Young Triceratops & Magnusavis meet a Young Troodon 

Magnusavis was a Cretaceous bird of North America. There WERE birds in the Cretaceous. Birds had already evolved from Theropod dinosaurs. Technically, flying birds ARE flying dinosaurs. Triceratops was a horned dinosaur from North America. Troodon was a "raptor" dinosaur from North America. All these animals lived in North America in the Cretaceous Period of the Mesozoic Era. These are all juveniles or "kids." 

IN the ground, you see a fossilized and buried skeleton of a Jurassic dinosaur... a young Allosaurus. Do you see the unhatched and now fossilized dino eggs underground? 

NOTE: These drawings were done for younger kids to color. These coloring pages are found in printable form by clicking on the "Paleontology" button. Then scroll down to the bottom of the "Mesozoic Life" part of the list. Have fun coloring these ancient animals. Oh. I forgot a final item: Do you see the happy plant in one of the coloring pages? 

The Ugly Duckling meets a Swan

 Today's coloring page for younger kids is of the Ugly Duckling.

This is my free coloring pages blog. Feel free to print any of the over 3000 coloring pages I drew...

Or color one of the several coloring pages done by my grandniece or grandnephew. 

The Ugly Duckling meets a Swan

I think that in the original story of the Ugly Duckling, the cygnet does not discover that he is a swan until he has grown up. In some video and children's book versions, he is still a cygnet when he finds out and is brought into a swan family. But in any version, the moral of the story is that the outsider or disenfranchised can turn out to be the most beautiful or best of all. 

In this drawing or coloring page, you see the "Ugly Duckling" as a cygnet or juvenile swan. He is meeting a female swan who accepts him and helps him realize that he is a swan. The mother duck who rejected the Ugly Duckling is seen further back and behind the mother swan. Her ducklings are seen behind the mother swan, viewing the "brother" they rejected being accepted as a swan. The implication is that swans are a higher rank than ducks. The mother swan's other cygnets are not in this drawing. But they welcome the "Ugly Duckling" because he never was a duckling. He always was a baby swan or cygnet. 

This is a cartoon-ish drawing for younger kids to color. But of course, any age person is free to print and color it. There are no fees or any cost to view this page or print any coloring page. I do not do "online coloring" on this site because I taught kindergarten for a while, and I believe in the hand-eye coordination that comes from coloring with crayons. 

NOTE: This new coloring page I drew can be found in printable form by clicking on the "Animals" button. Then scroll down to the bottom of the list of animal drawings. If you are accessing this page in September or October of 2026, then this title will be at or near the bottom of the "Animals" list.  I have also posted this coloring page at the bottom of the Birds" list.  By the way, can you spot the "happy tree"?

Little Girl with Jesus coloring page

 Today's new coloring page is of Jesus and a Little Girl.

This is my free coloring pages blog.

Little Girl with Jesus

Jesus loves little children. This is a cartoon-ish drawing of Jesus greeting a little girl. Remember that Jesus said we must become as a little child to be saved in the Kingdom of Heaven. 

NOTE: This coloring page drawing is found by clicking on the button labeled "Religious." Then scroll down to the bottom of the "New Testament" section of the page. Have fun coloring this coloring page that I drew for younger children to color. 

Four Jets coloring page

This is my free coloring pages blog with over 3000 coloring pages I drew for you.

Today's newest and rather simple drawing is of 4 Jet Aircraft.

For the next few days, I will be posting coloring pages for younger kids. 

 Four Jets

This rather simple drawing is for younger kids to color. It is for kids who like airplanes or jet aircraft. These are imaginary aircraft, although they have some similarities to real jet fighters. 

Can you identify something or somethings that are different in each jet? 

- Dark air intakes and striped rudder. 

- Black alerons, black rudder, and black flaps

- Black nosecone

- Black wingtip

- Under-fuselage air intake

Also, which cloud is the "Happy Cloud?"

Birch Tree Fairy and Peacock Butterfly coloring page

 

Today's coloring page I drew for you is of a 

Birch Tree Fairy. She is with a Peacock Butterfly.

Tree Fairies - Betulia the Birch Tree Fairy

If you are a regular or long-term fan of this blog, then you know that Tree Fairies are Fairies that have an affinity for specific types of trees. This is a Birch Tree Fairy.  She is also a Butterfly Fairy. Her wings are similar to those of a Eurasian Peacock Butterfly. This Fairy is named Betulia. If you saw Betulia, you would probably only see a butterfly. Fairies have powerful magic that hides them from most mortals. Certain mortals are blessed with the opportunity to see Fairies. These mortals are called "Fairykind." Only very special, pure-hearted mortals get to be Fairykind. Maybe you are one of them.

Betulia is named for the genus of birch trees (Betula). The butterfly is a Peacock Butterfly. This type of butterfly is native to Europe and Asia, although it HAS been introduced in North America. Birch trees are very commonly visited by butterflies. Many species of butterflies lay their eggs on birch trees. Many also make their cocoons on birch trees. 

Birch Trees are, as mentioned before, Genus: Betula. There are several species of birch trees. They tend to live mostly in the Northern Hemisphere of North America, Asia, and Europe. These trees have white bark with dark lenticels on the white bark. These marks really contrast with the white bark. 

NOTE: This coloring page is found in printable form by clicking on the "Fantasy, Myths, and Circus" button. Then scroll to the bottom of the list of drawings. This title will be at or near the bottom of the list if you are accessing this page in August or September of 2026. 

A note for those of you who are coloring this coloring page: The lenticels are only partly colored in. This is on purpose. You are free to use a pencil or black colored pencil to darken and more fully fill in these dark spots on the birch tree bark. Have fun coloring!
