Grandparents Day is a wonderful opportunity for kids to show Grandma and Grandpa just how much they are loved. These free printable Grandparents Day coloring pages make it easy for children to create a thoughtful, homemade gift their grandparents will treasure.
The set includes six different coloring card designs, with three made especially for Grandma and three for Grandpa. Kids can choose their favorite, color it with crayons, markers, or colored pencils, and add their own special message before giving it to a grandparent.
These printable coloring cards are perfect for celebrating Grandparents Day at home, in the classroom, at preschool, in Sunday school, or during a visit with Grandma and Grandpa.
Free Grandparents Day Coloring Pages
This free printable set includes six Grandparents Day coloring pages:
- A sweet Grandma and grandchild hugging.

- A people-free Grandma design with flowers, butterflies, hearts, and a watering can
- A sweet Grandpa and grandchild hugging.

Each page says either “Happy Grandparents Day, Grandma!” or “Happy Grandparents Day, Grandpa!” in large outlined letters that children can color.
The variety of designs makes this printable set useful for children of different ages and interests. Younger kids may enjoy the simple flowers, hearts, and fishing pictures, while older children may prefer coloring one of the detailed activity scenes.
A Thoughtful Homemade Gift for Grandma or Grandpa
Grandparents often appreciate handmade gifts more than anything they could buy at a store. A coloring page may be simple, but once a child adds their own colors and personal touches, it becomes a one-of-a-kind keepsake.
Encourage your child to write a short message on the back of the page. They could write something like:
- I love you, Grandma!
- You are the best Grandpa!
- Thank you for always making me smile.
- My favorite thing to do with you is ________.
- I am so lucky you are my grandparent!
Children could also draw an additional picture or write down one of their favorite memories with their grandparent.

Grandparents Day Classroom Activity
These printable Grandparents Day coloring cards also make an easy classroom activity. Teachers can print a selection of designs and allow each student to choose the page that best fits the grandparent or special older adult they want to celebrate.
Not every child has a grandma or grandpa available to receive a card, so it can be helpful to let students give their finished picture to any special older person in their life. This might be a great-grandparent, step-grandparent, family friend, neighbor, or another loved one who fills that role.
Children can complete the coloring pages during art time, use them as an early-finisher activity, or take them home to finish with their families.
When Is Grandparents Day?
In the United States, National Grandparents Day is celebrated on the first Sunday after Labor Day. Because the date changes each year, it is a good idea to print the cards ahead of time, so children have plenty of time to color and personalize them.
Of course, kids do not have to wait for Grandparents Day to use these pages. They also make sweet homemade gifts for a grandparent’s birthday, a special visit, or any day when a child wants to say, “I love you.”
More Ways to Celebrate Grandparents Day
You can turn the coloring page into part of a memorable Grandparents Day celebration. Kids could:
- Make Grandma or Grandpa a favorite snack.
- Look through old family photographs together.
- Ask a grandparent to share a childhood story.
- Play a favorite board game or card game.
- Create a handmade coupon for a hug or special activity.
- Call or video chat with a grandparent who lives far away.
Even a small gesture can make a grandparent feel remembered and appreciated.
I hope these free printable Grandparents Day coloring pages help your child create something special for Grandma or Grandpa. A handmade picture, a few carefully chosen colors, and a heartfelt message are all it takes to make a gift they will be proud to display
