Memorial Day Coloring Pages

40 free printable PDFsHoliday

Memorial Day honors the men and women who died while serving in the US military, and many of these pages reflect that respect. You'll find a folded flag tribute, a flag on a memorial grave, a memorial wreath, a poppy flower field, and soldiers saluting the flag. Other pages bring gentler patriotic themes for younger kids, like a puppy holding a small flag, a bear with a flag, a star balloon, and a patriotic cupcake. A Memorial Day parade and family picnic show how communities gather.

Choosing Memorial Day Coloring Pages

For young children, try the cute puppy with a flag, the smiling flower with a small flag, or the American flag heart. They're simple and kind.

For older kids, the poppy flower field, folded flag tribute, and memorial wreath pages are a good way to explain what the day means. Talk about why people remember.

The Memorial Day parade and family picnic pages fit a long weekend activity, and the Thank You Veterans sign can be colored for a family member who served.
