Turn Your Eagle Coloring Page Into a Puzzle
Our eagle coloring pages are not just a creative activity, but also a chance to learn about these powerful birds of prey and their habitats.
Creating a puzzle from our eagle coloring pages is a great way to combine artistic fun with a brain-boosting activity for small children. Here’s how you can easily transform those pages into a simple puzzle:
Materials Needed
- Eagle coloring pages
- Crayons, markers, or colored pencils
- Cardboard or thick paper
- Scissors or a craft knife (use with adult supervision)
- Glue
- Optional: Clear contact paper or a laminator
Steps:
1. Color the Eagle
- Start by letting the children color their eagle pages. Encourage them to use bright colors and to fill in the entire page for a more vibrant puzzle.
2. Prepare the Puzzle Base
- Once the coloring is done, glue the eagle page onto a piece of cardboard. This will provide a sturdy base for the puzzle and make it easier for small hands to handle.
3. Cut into Puzzle Pieces
- After the glue dries, cut the cardboard-backed eagle picture into puzzle pieces. For small children, it’s best to keep the pieces large and the shapes simple – think basic geometric shapes like squares, rectangles, or large jigsaw pieces. The number of pieces should be appropriate for the child’s age and skill level – usually, 4-6 pieces are sufficient for very young children.
4. Optional Lamination
- For added durability, you can laminate the colored page before gluing it to the cardboard. Alternatively, cover it with clear contact paper. This step helps the puzzle withstand wear and tear from repeated use.
5. Puzzle Time
- Mix up the pieces and encourage the child to put the eagle picture back together. This activity is excellent for developing fine motor skills, problem-solving, and spatial awareness.
6. Storage Solution
- Keep the puzzle pieces in a labeled envelope or a small box to ensure they stay together and can be easily found for future play.
This simple DIY puzzle activity not only extends the life of the coloring page but also offers an educational and enjoyable challenge for young children. It’s a creative way to engage them in both art and early cognitive skills development.

All About Eagles
Eagles are magnificent birds that are found all around the world! Using their sharp talons and beaks, eagles have a reputation for hunting food.
Eagles are also famous for their incredible eyesight – they can see prey from far away while flying high in the sky!
Did you know eagles come in many colors? Some eagles are brown, others are white, and some even have black feathers! You can use your imagination when coloring our free eagle coloring pages to create your very own unique eagle!
Eagles build their nests, called “aeries”, in tall trees or on cliffs. These aeries, which can be several feet wide and deep, are built by eagles using sticks, grass, and other materials. The female eagle lays eggs in the nest, and both the male and female take turns incubating the eggs and feeding the chicks once they hatch. Eagles are very protective of their young and will fiercely defend their nests from any predators.
So, get out your coloring pencils and start coloring your very own eagle! Remember, there are no rules in coloring – let your imagination soar and create your beautiful eagle masterpiece!
