This is a free printable Easter Bunny coloring page. It has 17 separate areas to colour, medium outlines, and covers about 5.8% of the sheet in ink. It prints on one page at 300 DPI on both US Letter and A4.

Printing this page

Standard 20 lb / 80 gsm copy paper is fine. This page uses very little ink, so it will not soak through or curl, and it costs almost nothing to print a class set.

Print at 100% scale rather than "fit to page". Both downloads already leave a 0.25 in (6 mm) margin, which is inside the unprintable edge of every common home and office printer, so nothing gets clipped. The file contains no colour at all, so the black-only setting prints it faster and cheaper.

If it does not print right

If this page prints faint, the cause is almost always a draft-quality or toner-save setting rather than a low cartridge - there is very little ink on this page to begin with, so any economy mode shows immediately. Switch to normal quality and it will come out solid black.

What's on the page

There are 17 enclosed areas on this page - the separate pockets the outlines divide the drawing into. That is what decides whether a page feels quick or absorbing, far more than the subject does.

The narrowest channel between two lines measures about 0.62 mm at full print size. We measure this on every page because it is what decides whether a marker will bleed across an outline.

The composition is centered, which is worth knowing before you print - it determines how much white space sits around the edge of the drawing.

What to colour it with

For this page we would use coloured pencils or fine-tip markers. A broad marker will cross the narrower gaps before you can stop it.

Who this page suits

We put this page at roughly the 2-4 age range, based on the line weight and how many separate areas it has - not on the subject. Plenty of adults colour pages meant for children and the other way round; the band is a starting point.

In a nursery or reception setting this is fine-motor practice more than art. The wide spaces let a child succeed with a fist grip, and success is what keeps them coming back to the table.

What to look for in this drawing

Anatomy is where animal line art succeeds or fails, so it is worth a look before you start: check that the limbs attach where they should and that the head sits on the body at a believable angle. Colouring exaggerates whatever is already there - a strong outline becomes a strong drawing, and a weak join becomes obvious the moment two colours meet across it.

How to colour this page well

With only a handful of areas to fill, the thing that decides how this page looks is colour choice rather than technique. Pick three or four colours that sit next to each other on the colour wheel and it will read as deliberate; grab whatever is nearest and it will read as random. Fill the biggest shape first - it sets the tone for everything you choose afterwards.

Stay just inside the outlines rather than aiming exactly at them. A one-millimetre margin of white next to the line reads as crisp; crossing the line reads as messy.

What to do with it once it is coloured

Cut the finished animal out and mount it on coloured card to make a simple wall piece. Younger children can glue on scraps of wool or felt for fur and feathers, which turns a ten-minute colouring page into an afternoon.

Printed at full size the artwork sits within a 0.25 in margin, so there is a clean border to cut along if you are mounting or framing it.

Frequently asked questions

This page is a single black-and-white line drawing of Easter Bunny, drawn with closed outlines so every part of the animal can be coloured separately. There is no shading and no grey - just clean outlines on a white background.

Best for toddlers and preschoolers (about 2-4). There are only a handful of separate areas to fill, so it finishes in one sitting and does not turn into a chore.

Use coloured pencils or fine-tip markers. A broad marker will cross the narrower gaps before you can stop it. On this Easter Bunny page the narrowest gap between two lines measures about 0.62 mm at full print size, which is what that recommendation is based on.

Standard 20 lb / 80 gsm copy paper is fine. This page uses very little ink, so it will not soak through or curl, and it costs almost nothing to print a class set. This Easter Bunny page measures about 5.8% ink coverage. Print at 100% scale (not "fit to page") and leave colour off - the file is pure black and white, so a greyscale or black-only setting prints it faster and cheaper.

Both. This Easter Bunny page is rendered twice - once for US Letter (8.5 x 11 in) and once for A4 (210 x 297 mm) - instead of scaling one file to fit the other, so neither version prints with empty bands down the side. Pick the download that matches your paper. Both are portrait and both keep a 0.25 in margin so nothing is clipped by the printer.

Roughly 16-38 minutes. This Easter Bunny page has 17 separate enclosed areas to fill, and that estimate assumes the age range above - a careful colourist will happily take longer.

Yes - that is what it is for. It prints on one sheet, so it works as a party activity, a table filler or a classroom page during easter. Printing a stack is free and there is no signup.

This page was drawn with AI assistance and then reviewed, cleaned and print-tested by a person before it was published - our editorial process page explains exactly what that involves. It is free for personal and classroom use, with no attribution and no signup. You may not resell the file itself.
