Learning About the Bluegrass State
Kentucky has a rich history and distinct natural beauty that makes it a great subject for educational activities. Our state symbol pages help students learn about the tulip poplar leaf, the bright yellow goldenrod flower, and the official state bird. You can pair these sheets with a cardinal coloring page for a broader lesson on regional wildlife and habitats.
The detailed horse farm scenes, state map outlines, and state flag illustrations work exceptionally well for elementary social studies units or as decorative covers for a state history report.
The Run for the Roses
The first Saturday in May brings the famous Kentucky Derby to Louisville, drawing fans from all over the country. This historic event is known just as much for its unique traditions as it is for the actual horse race. In our Derby Day section, adult colorists and children alike can decorate a fancy Derby hat covered in intricate roses, ribbons, and feathers.
Younger artists can color the winning jockey holding a trophy, the horses bursting from the starting gate, and the iconic twin spires of the historic racetrack. If you need more equestrian designs to supplement your activities, visit our horse racing collection for additional track scenes.
- Red and green for the traditional garland of roses.
- Bright pastels for the elaborate spectator fashion.
- Rich browns and blacks for the thoroughbred coats.
College Sports and Mascot Fun
Basketball is deeply woven into the culture of the state, bringing communities together during the college season. The sports pages feature an energetic wildcat mascot dribbling down the court, shooting hoops, and celebrating with a championship trophy.
These action-packed sheets are excellent for young fans wanting to show their team spirit before a big weekend game. You can use standard blue and white markers to represent the local university teams, or encourage children to invent their own colorful sports uniforms and team logos.
