48 Hello Kitty Coloring Pages (Free PDF Printables)

Hello Kitty has no mouth, which turns out to matter a great deal when you are coloring her. There is nothing to shade and nothing to get wrong, so these Hello Kitty coloring pages live or die on what she is wearing and what she is doing. There are 48 designs.

Save

Six are costumes: a princess, a mermaid, a witch, a ballerina, a pilot and a graduate. Eleven put her outdoors, at the beach, in puddles, flying a kite, picking apples, catching butterflies, gardening, stargazing and more. Nine involve food or a party, from baking cupcakes to a watermelon slice to a candy cane. The rest are quieter: reading, painting, asleep on a cloud, in a teacup, on a swing, in a kimono, and a plain sitting portrait.

Every one of these Hello Kitty coloring pages is free. Each design prints on standard US Letter paper, there is no sign-up, and the Hello Kitty coloring sheets can be printed as many times as you need. Click any design below to open the full-size PDF.

What’s in This Collection

Costumes

Princess, mermaid, witch, ballerina, pilot and graduate. These six have the most to fill in and the most freedom, because the outfit is invented and nothing about the color is fixed. They are the pages to hand a child who has colored the plain ones already.

Outside

The beach, the pool, puddles in the rain, a kite, apples, butterflies, gardening, stargazing, roller skating, ice skating and a snowman. These carry the most background of anything in the set, which makes them slower but also the ones that look most finished when they are done.

Food and parties

Baking cupcakes, eating watermelon, an ice cream treat, a candy cane, Christmas, a party, a balloon, tulips and a teacup. Worth knowing while a child colors these: she is not actually a cat. Her official story is that she is a little girl who lives outside London, which is why she is drawn standing up and holding things rather than on four legs.

The quiet ones

Reading, painting, playing guitar, asleep on a cloud, on a swing, in a kimono, with a teddy bear, with a rubber duck, peeking around a corner, and sitting plainly. These have the fewest lines in the set and are the ones to give a very young child.

Coloring Tips

Her bow is the only fixed color. Almost nothing about Hello Kitty is locked down except the red bow, and it appears on nearly every page here. Doing the bow first, in the same red every time, holds all 48 pages together as a set even when everything else changes.

Leave her face alone. She is white, and the temptation is to put a cream or a pale pink across her head to make it look finished. It makes her look dirty instead. Leave the face as bare paper and let the colored background do the work of separating her from the page.

Put the pattern in the clothes. With no mouth and no shading to add, the clothes are where a child can actually make choices. Stripes on the overalls, spots on the kimono, a pattern on the scarf. The costume pages are built for this.

Backgrounds want fewer colors than you think. On the beach, the garden and the stargazing pages, picking three colors and reusing them across the whole background looks far better than giving every small shape its own. It also takes half the time.

Start younger children on the quiet pages. Sitting, peeking, the balloon and the teddy bear have very few lines. The beach, the Christmas page and the gardening page have the most separate pieces and suit someone older.
