What are common Easter symbols and their colors?
Easter coloring pages are full of cheerful symbols representing spring and renewal:
- Easter Eggs: The star of the show! Use every color imaginable. Create patterns like stripes, polka dots, zig-zags, floral designs, or even intricate pysanky-style art. They symbolize new life and rebirth.
- Easter Bunny: Often depicted as white, brown, or grey. Usually shown hiding eggs or carrying a basket. Represents fertility and spring.
- Chicks: Bright yellow, symbolizing new life hatching from eggs.
- Lambs: Often pure white, representing innocence and Jesus (the Lamb of God in Christian tradition).
- Easter Baskets: Woven brown baskets filled with colorful eggs, green artificial grass, candy, and sometimes toys.
- Spring Flowers: Tulips, daffodils, lilies (especially white Easter Lilies, symbolizing purity), hyacinths. Use bright pinks, yellows, purples, and whites.
- Crosses: For religious themes, often simple wooden brown or shining gold, sometimes draped with white or purple cloth.

Coloring Techniques for Easter Designs?
Make your Easter pages pop with these techniques:
- Pastel Power: Soft pastel colors (pinks, light blues, yellows, greens, lavenders) are perfect for a spring feel.
- Pattern Play (Eggs): Use markers for sharp lines on patterns. Try layering colors or using white crayon first as a resist for wax-resist patterns.
- Fluffy Textures (Bunnies/Chicks): Use cotton balls dabbed in paint for a fluffy effect, or use light, soft pencil strokes.
- Blending: Blend colors smoothly for sunsets/sunrises in backgrounds or for soft transitions on flowers.
- Glitter Accents: Add a touch of glitter glue to eggs, flowers, or text for extra sparkle.
- Outlining: Use a fine black marker to outline shapes after coloring to make them stand out clearly.
