Spending time outside is one of the simplest pleasures, and for kids, a garden can be full of small surprises. Birds, insects, plants and trees are all doing their thing quietly in the background.
To bring some of that into a creative activity, I’ve made some In The Garden Summer Printables For Kids, inspired by everyday things you might spot in the garden.
It’s ideal for quiet time, rainy days, or just when you want to step away from screens for a bit. Everything is easy to print and simple enough for little hands to enjoy, whether they stick to the real colours or go with something completely different.

Why is colouring such a fun activity?
- Encourages creativity and self-expression
- Helps develop fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination
- Supports focus and patience
- A calming, screen-free way to wind down
- Builds confidence through completing a task
- Introduces colours, shapes and early spatial awareness
- Easy to set up with minimal mess or prep
- Suitable for a wide age range and ability levels
