12 free printable Minecraft animal coloring pages

These coloring sheets are a little different in that they are designed for shading. This is something you can use to teach light, dark, and more advanced colors to children.

Let’s use the first sheet as an example. Notice diagonal lines running through the squares and rectangles? Instead of coloring the bear completely brown, get your students to color the triangles differently. Use brown on one triangle then light brown and dark brown on the shapes on either side of it. Ask students to try adding some gray colors or even black.

Students can of course use any colors they want and use the shapes to make rainbow animals. This is just simple coloring advice that can be ignored completely, the main thing is to have fun and learn about a new animal!
