These Horse Coloring Pages will give your child practice with colors and their fine motor skills, in addition to giving them something fun to do on a rainy or cold day.
You'll find everything from the Appaloosas and Mustangs of the US to the beautiful Arabians from the Middle East. Be sure to check out all of the free coloring pages we have for all your child's coloring interests.
Once you find the horse coloring pages you're looking for:
1) Select Print on your browser for the horse coloring page you want for your child. Select the full page option.
2) When you have completed printing the horse coloring pages, close the windows.

Other Fun Activities Your Child Can Do
On a rainy day, your child might not have a lot to do. This can cause your child to become cranky, fussy, and bored. A bored child is much more likely to cause trouble, so finding something for them to do is important.
Give your child a blank sheet of paper and some crayons or colored pencils for them to draw on. If they can't decide on what to draw, give them a topic and have them pick something. This will train their fine motor skills and their creativity. You can also turn drawing into a game; give your child five minutes to draw a complete picture of some kind. Your child will find the race against the clock stimulating and fun.
Have your child build a blanket fort! If you're able, help them out. Grab pillows, blankets, and something to support the fort with. Pick a spot in your living room or in their bedroom, and get building! You can make quite the complex blanket fort with only a handful of supplies. Once it's constructed, spend some time inside with your child. Read them a story, or grab your laptop and watch a movie together. Bring some snacks and have fun!
If you have paper plates on hand, you can easily turn these into afternoon crafts for your kids. Sit them down with a paper plate each and some markers. Have them turn the plate into a creative design! Some ideas include Captain America's shield, a turtle shell, or the night sky. Let your kids use their imagination here! Keep some extra paper plates handy in case a mistake is made or someone wants to do a second paper plate design.
