The Classic Emotion Crew

Disgust brings her fabulous style, and Fear is always looking over his shoulder, waiting for the next big adventure!

The New Teenage Feelings

Meet Anxiety, with her wonderfully bushy orange hair and wide-eyed energy, and Envy, looking adorable and amazed by everything she sees. You will also find Ennui lounging around with maximum teen apathy, and Embarrassment hiding comfortably beneath his oversized pink hoodie.

Benefits of This Coloring Activity

Coloring is much more than just a rainy-day pastime; it is a powerful tool for early childhood development. When children pick up their crayons, markers, or colored pencils, they are building fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination. Staying inside the lines helps improve focus and concentration, giving little ones a wonderful sense of accomplishment when their artwork is complete.

Beyond physical dexterity, these specific emotional coloring pages provide a wonderful opening for social-emotional learning. As children color Joy, Sadness, or Anxiety, parents and educators can gently ask, “What makes you feel like Joy today?” or “How does Anxiety show up when you are nervous?” It bridges art with emotional intelligence in a completely natural way.

How to Use This Coloring Page

Using these printables is as easy as 1-2-3! Simply choose your favorite design from our collection, click download, and print it out on standard letter-sized paper. For the best coloring experience, we recommend using heavier cardstock if your child loves using paints or wet markers. You can even turn the finished masterpieces into greeting cards, bedroom door decorations, or a custom emotional wall collage!

Tips for Parents and Teachers

Pair the coloring session with a discussion about emotional vocabulary, helping kids name what they are feeling.
Provide a wide variety of art supplies like glitter glue, stickers, and textured crayons to let kids customize their favorite feelings.
Display the finished artwork proudly on a refrigerator, bulletin board, or hallway gallery to boost children’s self-esteem.
Use the coloring time as a calm-down activity after a high-energy school day or before bedtime.

Age Recommendations

Inside Out 2 coloring pages are wonderfully versatile and appeal to a wide age range. Toddlers and preschoolers (ages 3-5) will love coloring the larger, simpler shapes of characters like Joy and Sadness, using bright, bold crayons. Older kids and tweens (ages 6-12) will appreciate the intricate details of the newer characters, allowing them to practice shading, blending, and more advanced coloring techniques.
