DoodleGrove Skeleton Coloring Pages
These skeletons are having a great time. They dress up as pirates, witches, a vampire, a superhero, a cowboy, a wrestler, a ballerina and even a hot dog, and every one of them is grinning. Two pages show a plain skeleton standing straight, handy for talking about the bones in our bodies. The drawings are single characters with a little background, so they are quick to color and good for younger kids. Every page prints on US Letter and on A4.

Meet the Skeleton 3 pages
What does a skeleton really look like? One page shows a friendly skeleton waving beside a ghost, and two show the bones properly, standing straight and drawn inside a child's body outline. In class, kids can color the skull, ribs, spine and leg bones in different colors as they learn the names.

Trick-or-Treat Skeletons 5 pages
Witch hats, broomsticks and buckets full of candy. A skeleton peeks out from behind three pumpkins, another wears a round jack-o'-lantern costume, and a wizard carries a spell book with a star. Orange, purple and black are the obvious picks, but a lime green cape stands out nicely against the white bones.

A vampire, Frankenstein's monster and the grim reaper, all still smiling. Capes spread like bat wings and lightning bolts flash behind the monster, so deep reds, purples and stormy grays suit these.

Questions
- Which paper size should I print on?
- US Letter if you are in the US or Canada, A4 almost everywhere else. Each size has its own file, so neither one is a stretched copy of the other.
- Can I print these for my class?
- Yes. Printing for your class, family or group is free. Please do not sell the pages or upload the files to another site.
- Are these skeletons scary?
- No. Every skeleton is smiling, and most are wearing costumes. The grim reaper with a scythe and the Frankenstein costume are the spookiest pages.
