Today, I have 20 ancient civilization history coloring pages that match up to my units here on my blog. Also, look at my page Ancient Civilizations for more ideas. The coloring pages were free for a limited time, but I think you’ll still want them.
Sometimes the boys want to create their own covers for the lapbooks or notebooks from coloring pages.
I know with younger children, it can be hard to find history coloring pages based on everyday life.
But these coloring pages work well with middle and high school too if your kid still loves to color. I made sure they have no baby-ish looking clip art.
I have always tried to use museum quality coloring pages when the coloring mood did strike with my boys.

We have used various museum quality history coloring books through the years that have made a big difference in how my boys understood history in the early years.
I think clip art should be as real as possible and based on real events in history. They are not always easy to find. I wish I could draw my own history clip art, but you don’t want me to draw for you. Just saying.
Anyway, I collect the clip art as I find it.
Here is what the 20 page download contains. I put a few key words to explain each picture on the page. This way you can use the coloring pages as title pages too.

Also, instead of me adding titles on pages or naming the pages, this allows you to use the clip art/coloring pages any way you want to.
Whether it is a cover page, notebooking page, journal page or just to enrich a topic, you have the flexibility.
