About this coloring page
If your kid loves numbers 0–20, this Number 19 page is an easy win. The lines are thick enough to fill in confidently with a chunky crayon, and the negative space is varied — some big sweeping areas for younger artists, some smaller pockets that reward a more careful hand. We drew it specifically with the 3 – 7 crowd in mind, so nothing is so fiddly that a preschooler will give up halfway through, and nothing is so empty that a second-grader will lose interest.

This page is sized to fit a 9x12 frame after a quick trim, which makes it a nice little gift project. Color the page, slice off the margins, and pop it in a dollar-store frame for a grandparent. We’ve done this every December and it never gets old. It also scales down beautifully — print four-up on a single sheet, cut them apart, and you have instant mini-cards for thank-you notes, lunchbox surprises, or the little stack of cards that always seems to disappear from the kitchen drawer.
This page fits naturally into preschool counting, kindergarten math, place-value introductions. Parents tell us they keep a small folder of printed sheets in the car for restaurant waits and waiting rooms; teachers stash them in their sub-plans folder for the days a lesson runs short. The Number 19 design works in either context because it doesn’t require any setup conversation — kids see it, recognize it, and start coloring without needing the activity explained.
Teachers tell us they keep a stack of these printed and ready in a folder by the door — the perfect five-minute filler when a lesson finishes early or a transition needs a soft landing. We hope this Number 19 page earns a place in that folder too, and if it does, take a quick photo and send it our way. We love seeing how our pages get used, and the best ones often inspire the next round of designs we add to the site.
Coloring tips
- Layer two crayon colors on top of each other to invent a new shade; reds and yellows make a particularly good numbers 0–20-themed orange.
- Color the background first with a light wash so the Number 19 stands out.
- Add a tiny pattern (dots, stripes, stars) inside one big area for visual interest without adding any drawing skill.
- Tape the page to a window after coloring with markers; the light coming through gives a stained-glass effect kids love.
- Try one color family per area — warm colors (red, orange, yellow) for a sunny mood, cool colors (blue, green, purple) for a calm one.
- Outline each section in marker before filling with crayon for a stained-glass effect.

Most educational-themed pages on KidColor pull from the wider world of public-domain illustration, then get redrawn with thicker outlines and simpler shapes so they print cleanly and color easily. The Number 19 design is a friendly, kid-readable take on the subject — perfect as a jumping-off point for a quick conversation, a related picture book at the library, or a short field trip if the season is right. Pair it with one or two other Numbers 0–20 pages from this site for a longer activity, or use it as a single five-minute warm-up before moving on to something else.
