This collection has 22 free music coloring pages: seven pages of notes and clefs arranged as patterns, two notation reference sheets, eight instruments, four pages of sound gear, and one cartoon page. Every page is black and white on US Letter, downloads as a free PDF, and needs no signup.
The two reference sheets are the reason to bookmark this set rather than just print from it. One lays out note values one by one — whole, half, quarter, eighth, sixteenth, beamed pairs, treble clef — each drawn large and separate. The other shows the symbols around the staff: sharp, bass clef, rests, repeat marks, sitting on five ruled lines. Colored in, they become a wall chart a beginner can actually read.
What’s in this collection
Seven note-and-clef pattern pages, two notation reference sheets, eight instrument pages, four sound-gear pages and one cartoon — 22 in total, in the grid below. Each has its own Download PDF and Print button, so you can take one page instead of the whole set.
Two notation reference sheets
These are the pages a music teacher will want. One is a grid of note values, each shape drawn big enough to color in a different hue — which is exactly how many beginners first learn to tell a quarter note from an eighth. The other puts sharps, rests, clefs and repeat marks on a ruled staff. Neither carries printed labels, so the names can be written in by hand.
Notes and clefs as patterns
Seven pages use the notation itself as decoration: treble clefs curling across the sheet, staves bending into ribbons, notes scattered like confetti, one page spelling out the word music. Large flowing shapes with plenty of open space — the easiest pages here and the fastest to finish.
Instruments
Eight pages draw the instrument itself: a marching drum with sticks crossed, a drum in close-up, a xylophone with its mallets, a pair of maracas, an electric guitar on its side, a saxophone, brass horns overlapping, and a piano keyboard running under a treble clef. The keyboard page is the one worth printing twice — the black and white keys make an obvious pattern exercise.
Speakers, microphones and records
Four pages cover the gear rather than the instruments: stacked speakers, microphones on stands, vinyl records with a mic beside them. Circles dominate these pages, so they suit a child who wants big areas to fill.
How to print these
Every page is US Letter (8.5 × 11 in), pure black and white, with the drawing inside the printable margin. Plain copy paper is fine; choose “Fit to page” if your printer asks. If you plan to pin the two reference sheets up, print them on heavier paper — they hold up better than the rest to being handled every lesson.
FAQ
Are the note values shown separately, or only as decoration?
Both. Two sheets lay the note values and staff symbols out one by one for study; the other seven use notes as pattern and flow.
Which instruments are included?
Drum, xylophone, maracas, electric guitar, saxophone, brass horns and a piano keyboard, across eight pages.
What age are these music pages for?
About 5 to 10. The pattern pages suit the younger end; the reference sheets are most useful to a child who has started lessons.
Can I print these for a music class?
Yes. Print as many copies as you need for your home or your own classroom. Re-selling or re-uploading the files elsewhere is the only thing not allowed.
