The Lorax Deforestation Coloring Pages – Fun Printable Activity for Kids

The Lorax Deforestation Coloring Page invites kids to explore nature and the effects of deforestation in a fun and engaging way. Designed for students in Kindergarten (K) through 5th Grade, these pages help children understand forest health and the impact of human activity. Each picture shows a part of the forest story — from lush, healthy trees to areas being cleared. Children in 1st Grade and 2nd Grade will enjoy coloring the expressive faces of the Lorax and the animals who live in the trees. Meanwhile, older students in 3rd Grade, 4th Grade, and 5th Grade can think deeper about the environmental lessons within each page. This printable activity is ideal for use in the Elementary School setting, whether in a classroom in the United States or as part of a nature education program in other countries. Kids can use crayons, markers, or colored pencils to bring the forest to life and express their feelings about deforestation through color. From vibrant greens in healthy forests to muted browns in cleared areas, students use their creativity while learning to care for the environment. This activity fosters empathy, critical thinking, and environmental awareness—important values for young learners. These coloring pages aren’t just fun—they inspire action. They encourage children everywhere to “speak for the trees,” just like the Lorax.
