Thanksgiving Coloring Sheets: In the Kitchen

Part 2 of Thankful Together happens in the kitchen. The kitty who sent out the invitations in Part 1 now cooks the whole dinner: roasts the turkey, bakes a tray of dinner rolls, grates carrots, mixes the batter, decorates a carrot cake and finally sets the table. Six coloring sheets full of bowls, pans, jars and pumpkins.

Why kids like these sheets

Kitchen scenes have lots of round, friendly shapes — bowls, eggs, rolls, pumpkins — that are easy to color, plus plenty of patterns on towels, curtains and tablecloths for kids who want a challenge. The kitty is always in the middle of the page, so even quick colorers end up with a finished-looking picture.

Ideas for using them

• Cook and color: if you are baking for Thanksgiving, give kids the sheet that matches what you are making — rolls, cake or turkey.
• Before and after: put Planning the Thanksgiving Menu from Part 1 next to Roasting the Turkey and Decorating the Carrot Cake and compare.
• Classroom: these sheets fit a “How we cook a holiday dinner” lesson — kids number the steps.

Each sheet downloads on its own page. Complete Part 2 has the cover and all six sheets in one file.
