As a mom of two creative little girls who absolutely adore their daddy, I’ve been on the hunt for some simple yet meaningful Father’s Day activities that won’t break the bank. And let me tell you, nothing melts a dad’s heart quite like a handmade card from his kiddos! 🙂
So I’ve created these 12 super cute Father’s Day coloring page cards that are completely FREE to download and use. Whether your kids are tiny artists-in-training or just love scribbling with crayons (my youngest is definitely in the “more color is better” phase!), these cards are perfect for kids of all ages to customize for their special guy.
Why Coloring Cards are Perfect for Father’s Day
Ever noticed how dads seem to save every little scrap of paper their kids draw on? My husband has a drawer in his desk that’s bursting with our girls’ artwork. There’s something so special about a card that took time and effort to create. IMO, these homemade treasures mean way more than anything store-bought!
Plus, coloring is such a great activity to keep the kids busy while you’re planning other Father’s Day surprises. Win-win, right?
The 12 Free Father’s Day Coloring Cards
Each of these cards has been designed with simplicity and fun in mind. Just download, print, fold, and let your little ones work their magic with crayons or markers!
1. “Best Dad Ever” Trophy Coloring Page Card
This one’s a crowd-pleaser! A large trophy with bubble letters spelling out “Best Dad Ever” gives kids plenty of space to show off their coloring skills. My girls love adding glitter to the trophy to make it extra special.
2. #1 Dad Mug Coloring Page Card
A big coffee mug with “#1 Dad” and steam lines to color. This is perfect if your husband is like mine – completely non-functional before his morning coffee! My oldest daughter likes to color the mug to match daddy’s favorite real-life mug.
3. Toolbox with Tools Coloring Page Card
A simple toolbox with a hammer, wrench, and screwdriver. For all those handy dads out there! My girls love coloring each tool a different bright color – their dad’s toolbox has never looked so fabulous in real life!
4. Dad’s Favorite Hat Coloring Page Card
A baseball cap that says “Dad” in bold letters. This one’s super simple but always a hit. My husband wears a cap almost daily, so this card is especially meaningful in our house.
5. Grill Master Dad Coloring Page Card
A barbecue grill with tools like a spatula and tongs, plus the phrase “Grill Master.” Ever noticed how men turn into cavemen around a grill? “Me make fire, me cook meat!” This card celebrates that primal dad instinct!
6. Tied Up with Love Coloring Page Card
A patterned necktie and the words “Tied Up with Love” underneath. This card is perfect for dads who wear ties to work. My girls go wild with patterns and colors on this one – no boring office ties here!
7. Super Dad Emblem Coloring Page Card

A comic-style superhero emblem with a big letter “D” in the middle. Because let’s face it – in our kids’ eyes, dads are basically superheroes who can open jars and reach high shelves!
8. Dad Shoes Coloring Page Card
Classic “dad sneakers” with fun detailing to color. My husband actually laughed out loud when our daughter gave him this one – he’s fully aware of his “dad shoe” status.
9. Remote Control King Coloring Page Card
A TV remote with a crown and “King of the Couch” text. The universal dad symbol! Ever tried to find the remote when dad’s not home? Impossible! But somehow he always knows exactly where it is when he wants it.
10. Dad Holding Baby Coloring Page Card
A dad holding a baby in a cozy blanket with hearts in the background. This one always makes me a bit emotional, remembering how gentle my husband was with our girls when they were infants.
11. Dad and Kid Fist Bump Coloring Page Card
A close-up of a fist bump with “Dad Power” in big letters. My youngest and her dad have a special handshake that ends with a fist bump, so this card is definitely making an appearance this Father’s Day!
12. Matching Outfits with Dad Coloring Page Card
A dad and child in t-shirts labeled “Big Me” and “Mini Me.” This card is perfect for those dads who love mini-me moments with their kids.
