This set is built almost entirely out of activities rather than portraits, fishing, catch in the backyard, the grill, a bike lesson, a bedtime story. That makes it more interesting to color than a static figure, and it also makes the pages usable as prompts: children tend to pick the sheet that matches something they actually do. Every Father's Day coloring page here downloads as a free printable PDF sized for US Letter paper.
Dad and Child Fishing Together at a Peaceful Lake and Father Reading a Bedtime Story to Children are the two quietest scenes and the easiest to finish. Best Dad Coffee Mug With Hearts and Decorations is the one that works as a card. Dad and Kids Hiking Through a Mountain Forest and Dad Teaching a Child to Ride a Bicycle carry the most detail.
The outdoor scenes benefit from one thing most people skip: coloring the sky. A lake, a forest trail or a backyard with a white sky above it always looks unfinished, and a pale blue laid across the top of the page in a single even layer, lighter near the horizon, takes about two minutes and finishes the drawing.
The rest of the set leans more active. Dad and Child Playing Catch in the Backyard, Family Playing Sports Together in the Backyard and Dad at the Grill Barbecuing With a Chef Hat are the outdoor pages, and the grill is the one small lighting exercise here, since the coals should end up the brightest thing on the sheet. Father Lifting a Young Child Up High Laughing and Father and Daughter Dancing Together at Home are the two movement pages. Superhero Dad With Cape Flying and Child on Shoulders and Dad Working in the Garage With Tools and Projects round out the set.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which Father's Day page works best as a card?
The "Best Dad" coffee mug. It is a single centered object with space around it, so it stays readable printed at half size and folded, and the decoration on the mug gives a child somewhere to put their own pattern. Print on cardstock so the crease holds.
How do you color a sky?
One even layer of pale blue across the whole sky area, applied with light steady pressure and no scrubbing, going slightly deeper at the top of the page and lighter toward the horizon. Leave clouds as bare paper with a hint of gray along their undersides. Skipping the sky is the most common reason an outdoor scene looks unfinished.
Which pages suit younger children?
The coffee mug, the fishing scene and the game of catch all keep two large figures against a simple background and work from about age four. The mountain hike and the bicycle lesson have more background detail and suit ages seven and up.
