Craft Ideas to Make With Last Day of School Coloring Pages

Celebrating the last day of school just got more exciting with these creative ideas.

Perfect for every grade level, these projects are a fantastic way for beginners and talented artists to showcase their skills.

1. Time Capsule Treasures

Turn your coloring pages into a reminder of personal and school achievements by creating a memory box. 

Have students color our free printables and guide them to write letters to their future selves, weaving in their aspirations, predictions, and cherished memories. 

Roll these letters into tubes and seal them in a waterproof box, ready to be buried. 

This activity serves as a great activity for fostering hope and also becomes an exciting time capsule to marvel at during a school reunion.

2. Floral Flashbacks

Display younger kids’ favorite memories from the school year with beautiful blooms.

Have each kid color a design and cut out petals using a free template. 

On each petal, they will write down one of their favorite memories from the school year.

For an added sparkle, decorate the edges of the petals with glitter.

Arrange these memory flowers around the classroom as a colorful celebration of educational experiences throughout the school year.

3. Hanging Hopes

Display children’s ambitions for the future by making DIY dream catchers. Print and fill in an end-of-year coloring page. (Printing each page at 25% scale will allow you to hang a few from your dream catcher.)

Cut the colored designs into different shapes and punch a hole in the top of each one.

On the back of each cutout, write personal goals, positive affirmations, and things you’re grateful for.

Make a hoop using wire or a metal clothes hanger. Weave colorful yarn around the hoop to create a web. 

Tie the colored quotes around the edge and add feathers and beads for extra decoration. 

Hang these dream catchers around the classroom or have students take them home as a reminder of their school year. 

4. Bye Bye Bookmarks

This fun activity encourages summer reading. 

Print one of your coloring sheets at 25% scale and trim around the edges to create rectangles that measure 2 x 6 inches. 

Write the name of a friend or teacher and a special memory you have together. Laminate for durability.

Punch a hole in the top and thread a ribbon through for decoration. 

These page markers are a great way to let people know how much you appreciate them as the school year wraps up.

5. Growth Garland

Craft beautiful bunting to celebrate each student's journey and decorate your classroom with color.

Print our last day of school coloring sheets at 25% scale and have students fill them in with vibrant shades

Carry out a mindfulness activity where children think about their successes in class and write them on the back of each design. 

Punch a hole in the top two corners of the colored sheets and string them together.

Hang the garland to display the collective and individual achievements and motivate them to aim even higher next year.

6. Memory Book

Reflect on the year’s joys and challenges with a handmade memory journal.

Print some of our cute pictures at 50% scale and fill them with a rainbow of colors. 

Cut out each design and write reflections, highlights, and personal stories on the back of each.

Staple the pages together to create a great keepsake of experiences shared during the school term. 

7. Folded Farewells

Have a great time turning fun coloring pages into stationery for goodbye messages and thoughtful notes. 

Encourage students to complete the illustrations in their favorite colors. 

On the back, they can write a heartfelt farewell letter to their teacher or classmate, thanking them for their support.

8. Wishing Trees

Create a 3D tree sculpture to display dreams and aspirations for the next year of school. 

Start by collecting branches to form the tree structure and place them into a vase. 

Have students complete printable coloring pages and cut out leaf shapes. 

On the back of each leaf, have them write their wishes or goals. Laminate to protect the artwork.

Punch a hole in the top of each leaf and thread string through. Tie the cutouts to the tree, creating a communal space of shared hopes. 

9. Bespoke Book Covers

Decorate notebooks for a fun and creative way to encourage summer writing. 

Choose your favorite end of school printables and fill them with vibrant colors.

Cut the illustrations to fit your notebook or journal and glue them into place.

Add embellishments like photos and stickers of flowers and hearts.

These personalized book designs are the perfect way to transition from the end of year to the excitement of new beginnings.

10. Celebration Collage

As school time comes to a close, bring the whole class together with this collaborative craft that celebrates a year of child development. 

Engage your students in a reflective discussion about their favorite moments from the year. Then, give children time to complete last day of school coloring pictures.

Pin the pictures on a bulletin board and add photographs from fun lessons, activities, and special occasions like Sports Day or the Christmas Nativity. 

This display is ideal for capturing key moments in the school year’s journey.
