About these geometric pattern coloring pages
Triangles, hexagons and circles are the building blocks of these geometric pattern coloring pages. Ages 3 to 5 can manage the bold triangle quilt and the grid of circles in squares, and ages 6 to 8 can move on to a honeycomb and a kaleidoscope of diamonds. The hard and expert pages are the heart of the set: optical illusion cubes, a dense circle lattice, a warped checkerboard tunnel and a star mosaic.
Fans of trippy coloring pages will like the tunnel and cube illusions, which change look depending on which shapes you color dark. In math class, use the pages to name shapes, find lines of symmetry or test which polygons tile together without gaps.
Geometric Pattern facts to share
- Only three regular shapes tile a flat surface by themselves with no gaps: triangles, squares and hexagons.
- Bees build hexagon-shaped cells, a shape that stores lots of honey while using little wax.
- A tessellation is a pattern of shapes that fit together with no gaps or overlaps.
Color idea: Use a light, a medium and a dark shade of one color on the three faces of every cube or diamond to make flat shapes look three-dimensional.
Geometric Pattern coloring page questions
How can I use geometric pages in math lessons?
Ask students to name each shape, count sides and find lines of symmetry. The honeycomb page shows hexagons fitting together with no gaps, and the star mosaic is a good example of a tessellation for older students.
What makes a pattern look trippy?
Optical illusions come from contrast and repetition. On the cube and tunnel pages, coloring one face of each shape dark, one medium and one light makes the shapes seem to pop out or bend. Try black, gray and a single bright color.
Which geometric page should a beginner try?
Start with the triangle quilt or the circle and square grid. Both use big, bold shapes with thick outlines, so they are manageable for young kids and quick for adults who want a short coloring break.
