Panda Eating Bamboo Coloring Page

This coloring page of a panda bear shows a giant panda sitting upright and taking a bite out of a bamboo stalk. The big black ears, eye patches, and shoulders give it that classic look, while the white face and belly keep the design easy to see. It is a medium-difficulty page that works well for kids ages 5 to 8 who are ready to stay inside the lines.

Coloring ideas

• Fill the panda’s body with clean white and the ears, eye patches, shoulders, and feet with solid black.
• Use light green for the bamboo stalk and add a darker green stripe or two for the joints.
• Try a soft gray or light blue for the background to make the panda stand out.
• Add tiny green leaves near the top of the bamboo for extra detail.

Quick panda fact

Giant pandas spend up to 14 hours a day eating bamboo, which makes up almost all of their diet. After coloring, ask your child to count how many bamboo joints are shown on the stalk, or have them draw a second panda in the background to make a little panda family scene.
