This free parrot coloring page shows a friendly parrot perched on a branch, facing left with its long tail feathers sweeping down. The clean outlines make it a good fit for kids ages 5 to 8 who are ready to try a few different colors on one picture. The curved beak, round eye, and feather details give young colorists plenty of spots to practice staying inside the lines.

Coloring ideas

  • Try a bright red body with a yellow belly and a blue tail for a classic look.
  • Use green for the wings and a touch of orange on the beak.
  • Color the branch brown and add a few small leaves in the background.
  • Experiment with two shades of one color on the feathers to show light and shadow.

Quick fact and activity

Parrots are smart birds that can mimic sounds and even learn simple words. After coloring, ask your child to name three things a parrot might say, like “hello,” “pretty,” or “talk to the parrot.” You can also use the finished page as a prompt for a short story about where this parrot lives.
