Peppermint Candy Coloring Pages

Coloring the Classic Peppermint Swirl

The traditional peppermint candy is instantly recognizable by its bold red and white stripes. When coloring the classic swirl candies, you can stick to the traditional crimson red or try different color combinations like green and white for a spearmint flavor, or even rainbow stripes for a fruitier look. Young children will find the large, simple line art easy to fill in without crossing the boundaries. The twisted wrappers often have transparent or crinkly edges, which can be colored lightly with a pale blue or gray crayon to create a realistic cellophane wrapper effect.

Craft Ideas Using Peppermint Printables

These printable pages work well for more than just standard coloring sessions at home or in the classroom. The bold shapes of the round candies and candy canes make them excellent templates for winter crafts.

• Cut out the colored swirl candies and string them together with yarn to make a festive paper garland for the classroom.
• Use the large candy cane outlines as templates for tracing onto felt, craft foam, or thick construction paper.
• Decorate the printed pages with red glitter glue on the stripes to give the candies a textured, sugary finish that catches the light.
• Print the smaller candy ornaments, color them brightly, and cut them out to use as custom gift tags for your holiday presents.
