A Coloring Page Adventure with Dice
01. Preparations
- Print one of the coloring pages with the instructions for everyone
- Look at the picture and see different parts you can color (like arms, trees) Suggestion: pick big areas.
- Pick 6 colors and have markers or crayons ready
- Use a dice to choose colors (like 1 for blue, 2 for yellow, etc.)
02. How to Play
- Take turns rolling the dice onto your picture
- The number it lands on tells you which color to use
- Try to roll the dice so it lands on a part you haven't colored yet.
- If the dice falls off the picture or on a part already colored, you get to try 2 more times.
- If you still can't land it right after 3 rolls, wait for your next turn (Little kids can have more tries!)

Draw your own with AI tools!
These cute coloring pages above were created by Dall-E, an AI image generator. Did you know you also can do this? Here's exactly what we asked it to do:
"I would like to ask for a cute coloring page from you, which can be printed out and colored together with my daughter. I would like to request a cute elephant that is going somewhere. There can be a plant or two around it, but essentially the elephant should be the focus. It is important that this will be a printable coloring page, so only the outlines are needed, as is customary with coloring pages. Thank you!"
It's important to phrase the requests precisely. We emphasized that these would be coloring pages, so we asked for no colors, just outlines in black and white, in a printable format. Sometimes we requested additional elements like fish or puddles. Occasionally, we had to ask for a redraw, but overall, we are happy with the results. We hope you are too! Feel free to use these or generate your own coloring pages. We recommend our game rule ideas for any coloring page!
Oh, and where is Dall-E exactly? It's available in ChatGPT which you can sign up for here.
