A Rich Variety of Scenes and Symbols

This collection covers a wonderful range of subjects drawn from the traditions of North American Indigenous peoples. Young colorists will find a detailed chief shown in profile, a child dressed in traditional costume beside a teepee, and a whole family scene full of life and warmth. There are also iconic objects to color: a carved wooden totem, a tomahawk, and a flowing feather headdress. Hunting scenes show warriors drawing their bows, making for dynamic, action-packed pages that boys and girls alike will enjoy. The line art is clean and expressive, giving kids plenty of room to add their own creative touch.

Tips for Printing and Getting the Best Results

All pages are formatted for standard US Letter paper (8.5 x 11 in.) and print perfectly on any home inkjet or laser printer. For younger children aged 3–6, we recommend the simpler outline pages — like the single feather headdress or the tomahawk — where shapes are large and easy to fill. Kids aged 7–12 will love the more detailed scenes, such as the totem pole or the family illustration, which reward patience and fine motor skills. Use colored pencils for clean, layered shading, or watercolor crayons for a softer, painterly effect. Earthy tones — terracotta, ochre, forest green, and deep brown — work beautifully for authentic-looking results.

Coloring ideas for Native American

Reach for warm, earthy shades to bring these pages to life: terracotta and burnt sienna for skin tones and clay pots, ochre and golden yellow for feathers, deep navy or forest green for clothing and nature backgrounds. Add turquoise accents to jewelry and headdresses — a signature color in many Native American crafts. Use dark brown or black for totem carvings to make the details really pop.
