Thanksgiving Coloring Pages

Turkeys with wide tail feathers sit alongside harvest baskets filled with pumpkins, corn, apples and pears. Other pages show people sharing a meal or making a card. Thanksgiving is on the fourth Thursday in November in the United States and the second Monday in October in Canada. Choose a picture to print or download as a free PDF.

Color one turkey

The broad tail feathers give you a place to repeat two colors. Leave the little feather and leaf details until last.

Use the tree shown here. Keep any tag you want to write on pale or uncolored so the message stays readable.

Suggested color example

Thank-you tree with one pale orange tag, one pale yellow tag and three green leaves.
Digital coloring example: two pale tags and three green leaves. Leave room for a handwritten message; the rest can stay white.
  • 1. Orange tag
  • 2. Yellow tag
  • 3. Green leaves
  1. Choose one hanging tag and color it lightly orange.
  2. Try yellow on a second tag, or leave it blank for a note.
  3. Color a few small leaves green; stop when you have space for your message.

Display the whole sheet with your handwritten message, or place a separate thank-you note beside it.

More selection and activity ideas

Choose a page

Try a turkey with broad feather shapes for an easy start. Harvest baskets and family scenes offer more objects to color and talk about together. For a small thank-you display, compare the horn-shaped harvest basket, bears sharing bread, child drawing a heart card and tree with blank leaf-shaped tags.

Try it together

Color each turkey feather differently, or choose an autumn palette for the leaves. Add a handwritten note about something you are thankful for and share your picture with someone. Choose any of those four pictures and place a handwritten or drawn thank-you note on separate paper beside it. The tree is a regular coloring page with blank tags, not an online editable template; sharing the note is optional.
