About these birthday coloring pages

Everything on this page is party gear drawn large and simple, one or two objects to a sheet with plenty of white around them. There are cakes, one with three tall striped candles and drips of icing, another on a wide plate with a big star on top. There are cupcakes with swirled frosting, a cone party hat with a fluffy pom-pom, a pair of heart balloons and a crown under a star-shaped balloon. Gifts come covered in polka dots and tied with bows, and a few share the sheet with a friend: a teddy bear popping out of an open box, a puppy sitting beside a wrapped present and a cupcake standing next to a gift. A second teddy bear sits holding a balloon string. One design is a standing invitation card with an empty scalloped panel in the middle, where a child can write a name or draw a picture. Decoration sticks to dots, stripes and wavy frosting lines, so even the youngest guests can finish during a party. No names or ages are printed anywhere, so any design works for any birthday.

Coloring tips

  • Draw extra candles on the plain star cake to match the birthday child's age before handing it out.
  • Color the candle flames yellow with an orange tip, and stripe the candles in two alternating colors.
  • Polka-dot gifts look bright when the dots and the box contrast, such as pink dots on blue wrapping.
  • Set a sheet and a small cup of crayons at each seat as guests arrive; the simple shapes are done before the games start.
  • Use the party's own color theme from the balloons, napkins or cake, so the finished sheets can go up as decorations.

Questions about birthday coloring pages

How do I use coloring pages at a kids' birthday party?

Put a stack on the table for guests to color while everyone arrives, or after cake when children need a calm moment. Each child can take their sheet home as a small keepsake, and the large shapes here suit a wide age range.

Can I turn a coloring page into a birthday card?

Yes. Color the invitation card design or the teddy bear with a balloon, then glue it to the front of folded card stock. The invitation card has an empty panel inside its frame for a name or message.

Why do we put candles on birthday cakes?

The custom is often traced to 18th-century German birthday parties for children, where the cake held a candle for each year of age. Blowing them out while making a wish grew into the habit most families know today.
