Thinkabara14 pages in two sets
Thanksgiving (9 pages, including the color by number): a happy turkey with a big tail fan, a pumpkin pie with whipped cream, a cornucopia overflowing with harvest food, a harvest basket, fall leaves and acorns, an autumn-day scene with a house and pumpkins, “Happy Thanksgiving” bubble lettering, a “Thankful & grateful” leaf wreath and the turkey color by number. November (5 pages): “Hello November” lettering, an autumn owl, a pumpkin patch, a hot cocoa mug and corn with apples — perfect for the weeks before and after the holiday.
Every drawing is original line art made for Thinkabara, with thick, clean outlines that are easy for small hands to stay inside, and nothing printed in gray so they copy well on a school copier.
Ideas for using them
- Kids’ table placemats. Print on 11 × 17 paper (or tape two pages) and set out crayons while dinner cooks.
- Classroom calm-down time after lunch or before a holiday party.
- Thanksgiving cards. Fold a colored page in half and write a thank-you message inside for a grandparent.
- A November bulletin board. Let each student color a page and display them together.
- Waiting at restaurants or on a road trip to Grandma’s — fold a few pages into a clipboard.
Coloring tips by age
Preschool: chunky crayons and the simpler pages (turkey, pumpkin pie, fall leaves). Name the colors as you go. Kindergarten–1st grade: the color by number builds number recognition. Grades 2–5: challenge kids to use real autumn colors, add patterns to the lettering, or draw a background on the turkey page.

Frequently asked questions
Are these Thanksgiving coloring pages free to print?
Yes. All 14 pages are free for home and classroom use, with no sign-up. Each one prints on its own US Letter page; use “Print all” for the whole set.
What ages are these coloring sheets for?
The thick outlines and big spaces work for preschool through about 3rd grade. Older kids enjoy the lettering pages and the leaf wreath, and can add patterns or shading inside the shapes.
How does the turkey color by number work?
Each part of the turkey has a number. Match the number to the color key at the top — 1 brown, 2 red, 3 orange, 4 yellow, 5 green, 6 tan. A finished color example is included as an answer key.
Do you have November coloring pages that are not about Thanksgiving?
Yes — the November section has a “Hello November” lettering page, an autumn owl, a pumpkin patch, a cozy hot cocoa mug and a corn-and-apples harvest page, so you can use them all month.
Can I print them on A4 paper?
Yes. The pages are made for US Letter, but your browser will shrink them to fit A4 if you choose “Fit to page” in the print dialog.
