About This Butterfly Coloring Page

A beautiful butterfly spreads its four wings. Each wing has round spots, and the butterfly has a long body and two curly antennae. It floats above a gentle hill.

The wings are big and the spots are simple circles, which makes this a nice spring coloring page for kids who are learning to color neatly. It is part of our cute animal coloring pages.

Coloring Ideas

  • Monarch style: orange wings with black edges and white spots.
  • Pastel butterfly: pink, lilac and light blue.
  • Color the left and right wings the same – butterflies are symmetrical!

Did You Know?

A butterfly starts life as a tiny egg, hatches into a caterpillar and changes inside a chrysalis before it comes out with wings.

Activity

Talk about symmetry: color one wing, then ask your child to copy the same colors on the other side. Next, color the spring flower so the butterfly has somewhere to land.
