Teaching Weather Safety

Coloring can be a calm way to talk about severe weather. The tornado siren coloring pages help children recognize these important warning systems in their own neighborhoods. While coloring, you can discuss what to do when a tornado watch or warning is issued.

The science diagrams and weather pages also support classroom units by showing how warm and cold air meet to form a funnel cloud.

Coloring Realistic Twisters

Capturing the energy of a realistic tornado requires blending dark and light shades. Use charcoal grays, deep blues, and purples for the heavy supercell clouds above.

The twister itself often picks up the color of the dirt it travels over, so try adding browns or reds to the base. For the rare fire whirls, contrast bright oranges and yellows against a dark, smoky background.

Fun and Friendly Storms

Younger children might find real storms intimidating, so we included friendly twisters with smiling faces. These simple outlines are easy to fill in with crayons.

Kids can add green pastures or red farm buildings around the happy funnels to create their own stories.
