What features in the collection of free printable pirates coloring pages
Our collection of pirates coloring pages have more than 20 designs that offer a variety of choices for you. These illustrations featured not only pirates but also things related to them. I can mention pirate ships, treasure boxes, flags, treasure maps, and parrots.
To be more specific, let’s go around the collection to explore these features and learn how to color them.
Pirates coloring page
Pirates must be the centre of any free pirates of the Caribbean pirates coloring pages. You can find pirates in almost all the designs of VerbNow in different settings.
For example, you can find an image of young and old pirates sailing on the sea. Picture a dynamic duo, a young, eager pirate learning the ropes from an old, wise captain. They sail the vast ocean, their ship cutting through the waves.
Or another signature image of a pirate which is him with a colorful pirate on shoulder. The parrot’s vibrant feathers add a splash of color to the scene. Meanwhile the pirate, with a bandana and an adventurous grin, looks ready for the next treasure hunt.
You can color these pirates coloring pages in different ways to make it personal. In case, you want to refer to the way I color this rebellious figure, you can read below.
- Overall colors: Pirates are adventurous and bold. So you can use vibrant colors like red, blue, and gold to bring the pirates to life.
- Eye Patches: You can use a deep black or dark grey for a traditional eye patch. To show wear and tear, you add some subtle browns or dark greens around the edges.
- Pirate Hats: Pirate hats often have bold, dark colors like black, navy blue, or crimson red. For added flair, I usually use gold or silver for any trim or details.
- Pirate Clothing: Pirates often wore clothes in deep reds, blues, and blacks. You also can paint chests, trousers, and boots with these colors.
Pirate ship coloring page
Without a fine ship, pirates can’t set sail in search of treasure. You kids may feel excited to paint a pirate boat coloring page.
In the pirates coloring pages of VerbNow, it’s not always a majestic ship with a big flag and deck. Sometimes, it is just a simple boat without a glorious design. However, I believe all designs with coloring will bring a different vibe for your pirate.
I will show you the way I usually paint the pirate ship to bring it to life:
- For the hull, I use rich browns and blacks to highlight the wood grain.
- The sails can be a creamy white or light gray, with darker shades for depth.
- The deck, weathered and worn, should be a mix of light and dark browns.
- The Jolly Roger flag, a classic symbol of piracy, should be black with a stark white skull and crossbones.
Parrots of pirates coloring page
Along with the appearance of pirates, we always see parrots on their shoulders. Do you know why these two are always together and become a symbol? I will reveal this in the fun facts section below, so stay tuned!
These colorful birds add a vibrant and lively touch to pirates coloring pages. For these colorful birds, how to make them vibrant and lifelike? Below are my tips for you to have a beautiful parrot.
- Plumage Colors: Parrots are famous for colorful plumages. You can use a combination of bright reds, blues, and yellows for its fur. For example, you can paint red feathers with blue and yellow highlights. You also can try rainbow colors for an outstanding look.
- Beak: Color the beak with shades of grey or black for most parrots. For some species, you can use more vibrant colors, like orange or yellow.
- Claws: Typically grey or black. You can use shading to highlight the talons gripping the pirate’s shoulder or the perch.
- Eyes: For their eyes, black or dark brown are safe to paint. To make a lively appearance, let’s add a small white dot for a highlight.
Treasure box coloring page
When I watch any pirate movie, the treasure box always captures my attention. So when I discover pirates of the caribbean pirates coloring pages for free, I prefer coloring designs with treasure boxes.
A treasure box is one of the most exciting and iconic elements in pirate lore. It represents the ultimate reward for a pirate’s adventures, often filled with gold, jewels, and other valuable items.
A treasure box usually includes 3 parts which are wooden box, metal bands and locks, and treasure inside. I will guide you how to color each part so that you will feel confident when coloring:
- The wooden box: Using different shades of brown for the wooden parts of the box, such as a rich medium box. Now, you add darker browns or even black along the edges and between the planks to create depth and shadow. Highlighting by lighter browns or yellows.
- Metal bands and locks: You can paint with grey, silver or gold for the metal parts of the box. Next, you make use of shading technique by adding darker grey or black to the edges.
- The treasure inside: For gold coins, you color with bright yellow or gold. For jewels, you use a variety of bright, vibrant colors. For example, you can try using red for rubies, green for emeralds, blue for sapphires, and purple for amethysts.
Some fun activities to do with colored pirates coloring sheets
If you are a kindergarten teacher and finding activities for kids, you are here for a treat. I have some recommendations to do with the finished pirates coloring pages. Let’s discover what they are and use them for more fun!
Pirate maze game
The mission of pirates is looking for treasure, do you want to become them today? The pirate maze game will allow you to immerse in a treasure hunt. The best part is you don’t need to draw the maze by yourself.
In our collection of pirates coloring pages, you can find a design of maze leading to treasure. You can zoom out the image so that it’s easy to play in a group.
It’s the perfect choice for class activity or having fun with friends. You can create different levels of difficulty to keep it engaging by adding obstacles to the maze.
Pirate scavenger hunt
Another fun activity for kids to enjoy is pirate scavenger hunt. This game will encourage kids to move, explore and ignite their curiosity. The way to do this game is so easy, you just need some coloring paper and a scissor.
First of all, you let the children color pirates coloring pages on their way. After that, you collect these pages and create a list of pirate-themed items. You cut out the treasure chests, a pirate hat or a pirate sword and hide around the class, outside the house.
Now, it’s time for the game to start, you ask children to run and seek the items. You also make it more fun by adding rewards for the one finding the most items. The children must be so excited to move their body and win the contest.
Twig ship pirates
Are you finding an activity for the kids? Why don’t you try the activity of Twig ship pirates? You only need to prepare some twigs, glue and your finished pirates coloring pages.
Now, you follow my instruction, first of all, you give each child 8-10 twigs of varying sizes. Then, you can help them or let them do it on their own, glue the twigs vertically onto a blue poster board.
You should tell kids to start with the shortest and progress to the longest. To make a ship more lifelike, add a white paper sail to the top.
Finally, you ask kids to glue a cutout pirate figure to the front of the ship and a flag to the top of the sail. Now, kids have their own pirate ship, you can use them for other activities.
Make pirate eye patches
If your kids want to dress up like a pirate, let’s suggest they do an eye patch by yourself. It is so easy that even a small kid can join this activity.
You cut out eye patches from the pirate coloring pages and glue them to a construction paper. Now, you need to help children or do with them to attach an elastic band or string.
You check the string so that kids can wear eye patches comfortably. Let kids decorate their eye patches with markers, stickers, or glitter as they want.
Pirate storytelling
Storytelling is a good way to spark imagination and creativity in kids. This activity allows kids to create their own pirate adventures.
You should encourage them to use pirates of caribbean pirates coloring pages as visual aids. If kids have difficulties, you can help them in the process of making up stories about their pirate characters.
You can record the stories or write them down to create a pirate storybook. If you are parents, I believe it is a quality time with your kids and leave a good memory on them.
Make pirate telescopes
The last idea I give you today is to make pirate telescopes from pirates coloring pages. Crafting telescopes lets kids pretend to be pirate captains, searching for distant lands and treasures. ‘
You use empty paper towel rolls or make your own tubes from construction paper. Then you paint or cover the tubes in black or brown.
Feel free to let your kid decorate with gold stickers or markers to add a pirate touch. Kids can use their telescopes to “spy” for ships and treasures around the room.
