I decided to create these absolutely gorgeous Whimsical Thanksgiving coloring pages that celebrate all the cozy, magical parts of fall without a single gobble in sight.
These free printable Thanksgiving coloring pages are like autumn wrapped up in pure joy – think dancing acorns, friendly woodland creatures having their own harvest party, and the most adorable pumpkin patches you’ve ever seen.
Picture cozy foxes gathering colorful leaves, squirrels sharing acorns, and enchanted forests filled with swirling autumn magic. Our whimsical fall printables capture that warm, fuzzy feeling of November without making anyone color another turkey tail feather (because let’s be honest, how many turkey feathers can one family color?).

These pages celebrate gratitude and autumn beauty through enchanted mushroom houses, cheerful woodland friends, and those perfect fall scenes that make you want to grab a mug of apple cider and snuggle under a blanket.
Whether your little artist wants to color magical autumn trees with swirling leaves, adorable hedgehogs collecting berries, or cozy cottages surrounded by pumpkin gardens, our printable autumn coloring pages offer pure seasonal joy. Trust me, these holiday coloring pages will have your kids asking for more fall fun instead of counting down the minutes until Thanksgiving dinner – and honestly, that’s a Thanksgiving miracle right there!
