6 Cupcake Coloring Pages

Coloring is a relaxing and meditative activity that can inspire creativity and help calm down children after a long, busy day. But these pages are for more than just coloring! We recommend you try these activities to get the most use out of your favorite cupcake designs.

1. Create a cupcake recipe
   Have you ever dreamed of creating your own cupcake recipe? With our coloring pages, you can imagine the baking that goes into making such a dessert and write your own recipe. For example, choose the type of cake, frosting, and toppings you want and how you plan on baking it!
2. Host a cupcake decorating party
   This is the perfect group project for birthdays, slumber parties, and even indoor recesses at school. Invite a group of friends to choose their favorite cupcake template, print it out, and spend time coloring together! Make sure you provide pencils, markers, and crayons. To make it a competition, compare cupcakes at the end and decide whose looks the most delicious!
3. Make a cupcake book
   After you’ve decorated all of our cupcake coloring pages, collect them in a stack and staple the edges together. This way, you can look back on your brilliant art and continue to dream of how yummy your cupcake might be.
4. Play a memory game
   Memory is a fun game for one or multiple players that takes only minutes to set up! Print out two copies of each cupcake coloring sheet. Decorate each of the pairs exactly the same, using as similar colors and patterns as you can for each one. Finally, mix up the cupcakes and lay them face-down on the table. Take turns picking up two cupcakes, turning them over, and trying to find a match. The player who has found and picked up the most matches when the cupcakes run out wins!
5. Make a puzzle

   Although it may be hard to say goodbye to your beautiful and scrumptious cupcake coloring page, you’ll have a fun and reusable cupcake puzzle in the end!
   Safely cut your completed cupcake coloring sheet into ten to fifteen random pieces. Ensure each piece is big enough to recognize. Mix the pieces up and put it all back together! You’ll have to recreate your original cupcake coloring page as if it were a jigsaw puzzle. This game encourages children to use context, such as colors and shapes, to consolidate information.

6. Make cup coasters
   If your little ones tend to leave drink rings on all the tables at home, help them make their own cup coasters! All you need to do is print your cupcake coloring pages on A6 paper and color them, decorate them, and design them all you want. Lastly, laminate the coloring sheet and trim the edges to ensure your coaster is your desired size.

   Place your coasters around the house to act as a barrier between drink cups and furniture. If they get wet, the plastic laminate will keep the cupcake coloring safe. Just wipe your coasters off and reuse them!
