November is the quiet month. The color show is over, the trees have gone bare, and the whole country is waiting on one Thursday in the fourth week. These 15 November coloring pages cover the month rather than the holiday, so geese heading south, the first snowflakes, pilgrims and hibernating animals sit alongside the harvest corn. Every design downloads as a free printable PDF laid out for US Letter paper, and each one scales to A4 without losing anything at the edges.
The set is built in three levels. A preschooler can start on Sleepy Bear Ready To Hibernate or Cartoon Beaver Sitting On A Log, both of which use big rounded shapes and almost no interior line. Somewhere in the middle sit Cartoon Owl Wearing A Knitted Scarf, whose scarf breaks into forty small stripes, and Cartoon Hedgehog Carrying An Apple, with several dozen separate spines to work through. Adults and older children usually head for Decorative Indian Corn With Patterned Kernels and Patterned Pinecone And Evergreen Sprig, which are both built from hundreds of small repeating units.
November takes a different palette from October, and that is worth saying out loud to a child who reaches straight for orange. The month is grays, deep browns, cold blues and one or two last flares of red. Bare November Tree With Patterned Bark makes the point better than anything else here: five leaves still hang from a tree that has lost everything else, and if you wash the twigs in gray and leave those five burning, you have the whole season on one sheet. Decorative Cranberry Branch is the other place to spend red, with roughly thirty berries running the full height of the page.
The weather sheets track the month as it turns. Geese Flying South Over Bare Trees and Chipmunk On A Hollow Log belong to the first half, when everything is still moving and storing. First Snowflakes Over Bare Branches, Steaming Mug Of Cocoa By A Window and Child In A Warm Sweater And Boots belong to the second half, once the cold arrives for good. The two history sheets, Pilgrim Boy And Girl Walking Together and Patterned Mayflower Ship, pair naturally with a school unit and carry enough accurate detail to talk about.
Looking for the feast itself? It has its own collections and nothing here repeats them. Go to Thanksgiving for the table, the family and the pies, and Turkeys for fifteen sheets of the bird alone. For the weeks on either side, October covers the harvest and the pumpkins, Fall covers the season at large, and Winter takes over once the snow settles. Veterans Day sits on the eleventh, and Christmas is waiting at the end of the month for anyone who cannot help themselves.
Frequently Asked Questions
How are these different from your Thanksgiving coloring pages?
Thanksgiving pages are about one day: the turkey, the table, the family and the food. November pages are about the whole month, which in practice means migration, bare trees, the first snow, hibernating animals, cranberries and the pilgrim story. This collection deliberately sends the feast to the Thanksgiving and Turkeys collections so you get 15 genuinely different sheets instead of the same dinner table again.
Which of these pages suit a preschooler?
Start with the bear, the beaver and the cocoa mug. All three are built from a small number of large closed shapes with thick outlines and no fine detail, which means a fat crayon and an unsteady hand still produce something that looks finished. Avoid the corn and the pinecone at that age. Both carry hundreds of small units and will frustrate a child who cannot yet control a pencil point.
What colors should we use for a November page?
Pull the palette back from the October box. The month reads as gray, slate blue, deep brown and dull gold, with red kept for the cranberries and the last hanging leaves. A useful exercise for an older child is to color a page using only four pencils chosen before they start. The limit forces decisions about where the one warm color goes, and the finished sheet holds together far better than one colored with everything in the tin.
Can I print these for a class or a homeschool group?
Yes, and as many copies as you need at no cost. The pilgrim and Mayflower sheets support a history unit, the geese and the hibernating bear fit a science lesson on migration and dormancy, and the bare tree works as a nature study if you send children outside to find the same shape on a real trunk first. Standard printer paper is fine for crayons and pencils. Move up to 65 lb cardstock if anyone is using markers.
