Things to make with your mythical creatures coloring pages
Invent a creature
Mythical creatures often mix animals, like the griffin and the chimera. Choose three animals, color the chimera page, then sketch your own mix on the back and give it a name.
Tell the legend
Pick one creature, find out where its legend comes from, and write two sentences about it under your colored page, such as the phoenix being reborn from its own ashes.
Map your creatures
Color the fantasy map, then color each creature on it in the same colors you used on its own page so the map and the pages match.
Each picture is an individual vector PDF. Print on US Letter, or choose “Fit to page” for A4. Try one copy first to check the margins.
