Meal Planning for Kids – Food Coloring Pages (3 Pages)
I put together this mini set of coloring pages to help with getting through the day when some kids just need a break from regular school break.
These coloring sheets can also be a a simple way to start conversations with kids about food choices and meal planning—without making it feel like a “lesson.”
These are coloring pages, but they’re also a great prompt for talking about breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks, and what makes a meal feel balanced.
Kids can color the pictures any way they like (I love seeing purple carrots)!
While they color, you can use the pages to introduce or review basic food groups and help children notice that meals are usually made from a mix of different foods.
Easy ways to use these pages:
Nutrition theme week (quick, no-prep activity) - For example, "National Nutrition Month" is in March!
Health class / guidance / homeschool
Early finishers or calm-down activity
Family and consumer science “lite” for younger kids
A simple writing or discussion prompt (favorite meal, “what would you serve,” etc.)
Optional extensions (if you want to add learning without extra materials):
Ask kids to circle foods that could be part of breakfast vs. dinner
Have them to name one fruit/vegetable they’d add to a meal
Create a “My Meal Plan” discussion: What would you choose for breakfast/lunch/dinner?
Practice vocabulary: ingredient, protein, grain, dairy, vegetable, fruit
These pages also support fine-motor skills (coloring, pencil control) and attention to detail. Print as many copies as you need.
What’s included:
• 3 PDF coloring pages
• Food-themed illustrations + a friendly chef
File type: PDF
Total 4 pages with face page - Remember you can print them as many times as you want!
