Coloring ideas for Bear

Bears can be brown, black, white, or even bluish-gray, depending on the species. Use brown for a forest bear, black for an American black bear, or white if you're drawing a polar bear. Their noses and paws can be black or dark brown. Want to make your bear extra special? Try adding a colorful scarf, a picnic basket, or even a tiny hat. For the background, you can draw trees, mountains, caves, or a snowy hill depending on your bear’s habitat. Maybe even add a honey pot or a friendly bird perched nearby!

On the back of the page, why not try writing some fun facts about the bear, or how to say its name in different languages? You could even give it a name of your own, or draw your own version using your imagination!

What is a Bear?

Bears are large mammals that live in forests, mountains, and icy lands. Depending on the type, a bear can weigh between 200 and 1,500 pounds (90 to 700 kilograms) and live up to 25 years. They have thick fur to keep them warm, strong claws for climbing or digging, and sharp teeth for eating everything from berries to fish. Bears are omnivores, which means they eat both plants and animals. Some hibernate in winter, curling up in cozy dens to sleep through the cold months. Bears can growl, roar, or make softer sounds to talk to each other. Although they look tough, they often enjoy calm, quiet moments alone in nature. From the polar bear in the Arctic to the grizzly bear in the woods, these gentle giants are powerful, peaceful, and full of wonder.

Choose your printer, then adjust the print settings according to your preferences (orientation, margins, number of copies, etc.), and start printing.

→ Why is there still a margin even when I selected full page with 0 margins?
