28 Free Spider Coloring Pages to Print

28 free printables Any paper size 300 dpi No sign-up

Smiling round spiders rather than anatomically convincing ones, and a good number of spider webs, which are the real draw here.

Click any drawing to print it. The sheet opens in a new tab and the print dialog does the rest, with every paper size your printer offers. Prefer a batch? Tap + on each drawing you want, then print the whole pile in one go from your pile.

A cobweb drawn properly is a lattice of small triangles, and filling one in with a different color per section keeps an eight-year-old quiet for a surprisingly long time. The spiders themselves are simple enough for a much younger child, so a sheet works for two kids at once.

Every drawing is a free printable PDF and prints at 300 dpi on any paper size your printer takes, US Letter and A4 included, with nothing to sign up for.

What you will find on this page

These spiders have jobs. One paints at an easel, another plays a violin on its web, a third reads a newspaper in a hard hat. There is a pirate spider with a treasure chest, a spider in a witch hat reading a spell book, and one hanging on a thread above a ladybug who does not seem worried. A tarantula carries her babies on her back.

If someone in the house is uneasy about spiders, this is the page that fixes it. Round bodies, friendly faces, eight legs drawn as simple curves. Nothing hairy, nothing looming.

Easy spider coloring pages for toddlers

The simplest sheets are a single spider on a leaf or between two mushrooms. A body, a head, eight legs, done. A three-year-old can color a spider faster than almost anything else because the legs are just lines and the body is one big shape to fill.

Spider webs with real pattern work

The webs are the reason older children and adults stay on this page. Each strand is drawn separately, so a web is thirty small triangles rather than one gray area. The sheet with four spiders on one web gives each of them a different pattern on its back. The desert web among the cacti and the pond web with fish underneath both take a while, and they are worth it.

Spiders for Halloween

A handful sit squarely in October: the witch hat, the pumpkins being painted, the bat and mouse sharing candy under the cobwebs. The halloween coloring pages and the bat coloring pages carry on from there, and the witch coloring pages put the same hat on a fox and a badger.

What to do with them once they are colored

A colored web taped into the corner of a doorframe looks like it belongs there, which is more than can be said for the cotton kind that ends up on everyone's sleeve.

Cut the spiders out separately and hang them on lengths of thread at different heights, in a doorway or from a lampshade. They turn in the draft, which is the whole effect.

A quieter use: a child who is frightened of spiders can color one, name it, and stick it above the light switch. It is a small thing and it works more often than you would expect.

Printing your spider coloring pages

Are these spider coloring pages really free?

Yes. Download the PDF, print it, and nothing on it will ask you for an email address. No watermark either.

Are they scary?

No, and that is rather the point. The spiders here play violins, wear hard hats and pirate tricorns, paint at easels and hold flowers. If somebody in the house is uneasy about spiders, these are the ones that tend to fix it.

Why are the webs worth printing?

A web drawn properly is a lattice of small triangles, and filling each section a different color occupies an eight-year-old far longer than the spider itself does. Several sheets here are mostly web, which is deliberate.

What paper size should I print on?

Any size. Choose it under More settings in the print dialog. A web fills a large sheet better than a small one, so this is a good page to print big.

Can two children share a sheet?

Often, yes. The spiders themselves are drawn simply enough for a four-year-old, while the web around them holds an older child. It is one of the few subjects here where the same page works at two ages at once.

Can I print a class set?

Yes. A class, a daycare group, a library session, a minibeast unit in spring. Print what you need without asking us. Selling the files or reposting them elsewhere is the only thing off limits.
