Top 25 Free Printable Frog Coloring Pages For Kids
1. Frog
Here’s an introductory coloring page for frogs. There are around 48000 different species of frogs found all over the world, beautifully painted by Mother Nature. You’ll see these animals in every part of the world, except Antarctica. Scientists have also found frog fossils dating back to 140 million years. Ponds, lakes, and marshes are their favorite spots. A unique feature about frogs is that they breathe and drink through their skin. When frogs feel too hot, they get into the water to cool off, and when they feel cold, they bask in the sunlight to warm them up.
2. Tree Frog
Here’s a tree frog coloring page. As the name implies, a tree frog resides only in trees. And they are triumphant, as you can see on the coloring page. These frogs are native to South and Central America. Tree frogs are great jumpers. They love hanging and scaling around, just like monkeys. These frogs are also rather intelligent. They spend their time curling up by hiding their flanks and then surprise the predators by unwinding. Tree frogs use the substances excreted from the ear glands to coat themselves. This coating makes them waterproof. These frogs come in bright colors. So tell your little one to break out his electric blue and hot pink crayons for this happy creature.
3. Toad
Here’s a coloring image of a toad. A toad is a close relative of the frog. These animals are typically brown, but black, pink, and yellow toads are also common. Toads are nocturnal animals. They spend much of their daytime resting and night hunting. Do you know the difference between a frog and a toad? Frogs have a narrow body with smooth and moist skin while toads have a broad body with rough and scaly skin. Can you get warts from holding a toad? No, that’s a myth, but you can die from holding a toad if it’s a poisonous toad. The toxins secreted by these amphibians are so toxic that it can kill an adult human.
4. Tadpole
This coloring page features a tadpole, the larval stage in the life cycle of a frog. Tadpoles are aquatic in nature. They hop into ponds the moment they develop from an egg. Tadpoles respire through their internal gills. They do not grow legs or arms until they become proper adults. But they do have a long, flattened tail that helps them to swim. Tadpoles face a very tough time in the pond. They have to make their way past an army of predators before developing into froglets. Kids will enjoy the mini science class while coloring this tiny tadpole.
5. Cute Frog
Here’s a beautifully animated frog coloring sheet. Give this coloring page to your nature lover and see her delightfully filling the diagram with her favorite colors. Share this fun fact with your little one as she paints the image. Both frogs and toads are omnivores. Small to medium-sized frogs like to feed on insects like flies, moths, mosquitoes, and dragonflies. Larger frogs eat large insects like worms and grasshoppers. Some frogs eat mice, baby turtles, small snakes, and even small frogs. And some even starve themselves before eating a dead animal or insect. These frogs like their food fresh. These amphibians have a vast appetite; we must say.
6. Frog Lifecycle
Explore the frog’s life cycle with your aspiring biologist with this coloring page. Every animal goes through different stages of development throughout its life, and the same is the case with frogs. The frog life cycle in the coloring image shows a cluster of frog eggs or egg masses. The tadpoles hatch from these eggs and thrive in the pond and other freshwater habitats. The tadpoles then turn into froglets and then they become frogs. Kids can also cut out the cards for doing school projects. But first, give them some beautiful colors.

7. Frog Basking In The Sun
This coloring page of a frog looks rather delightful. It features a happy frog basking in the sun. But it may help to know that frogs cannot stay in the sun for long.

9. Leaping Frog
This coloring page shows a frog making a splash while leaping out of the water. Frogs are great leapers. They can jump 20 times their body length. But do you know how? Frogs have powerful muscles in their back legs that help them jump over large distances while pushing from the surface. The longer the frog’s back legs are, the further it can leap. Hopping is also an excellent way to escape the danger. Frogs also hop back to their home in water to lay eggs. The coloring page is not only lacking colors but is also lacking some details. Tell your kid to make a forest backdrop to go with the picture. This coloring page will also make a great addition to Leap Day activities.
10. American Toad
American toads are native to the Nearctic region but are found throughout North America. These toads have an amazing ability to adapt to their surroundings, but there must be semi-permanent water for them to thrive. They also need patches of vegetation that they can use for their hunting grounds. American toads have stout bodies, short legs, and very thick skin with noticeable warts. These warts can be anything between red and yellow. The color of the toads ranges from brown to yellow to black. Just like other toads, even American Toad’s warts contain glands that can produce a poisonous milky fluid. The milk fluids provide excellent protection from predators.
11. Gabi
Gabi is a character in the upcoming Rio 2 movie. This cute, pink frog is the secondary antagonist of the film. Gabi is a poison dart frog who is head over heels in love with Nigel. She claims that she is not villainous but is slightly misunderstood. But in reality, she is as vicious and as ruthless as her beloved Nigel. Despite her small stature, Gabi hatches some evil plans for Nigel and even assists him while executing them. She even attempts to kill Blu by poisoning him while he is asleep.

These frogs are very tiny, with male red-eyed tree frogs growing up to 2 cm and females growing up to 3 to 4 cm. The Australian red tree frog can also prevent the spreading of HIV infection, the primary cause of AIDS.
13. Poison Dart Frog
Here’s a coloring image of a poison dart frog. The poison dart frogs reside in their rainforest habitats in South and Central America. You’ll find them hanging around in trees, logs, and forest floors. These frogs got their name from the fact that the hunters would use the toxic secretion from their bodies to cover the tip of the darts. Poison dart frogs are very tiny, barely ½ to 2 inches long, which makes them very hard to spot. These frogs prey mainly on invertebrates like ants as they help build strong poisons in the body. Sadly, poison dart frog numbers are reducing drastically because of ranching and cutting down the rainforests for farming.
14. Glass Frog
What is this glass frog doing on the lily pad? He must be searching for his prey. The glass frogs are native to the basins of the Amazon forest. These are some of the most bizarre-looking frogs. They have a transparent skin chest and tummy, which allows people to see their heart, intestines, and liver clearly. Scientists say that their transparent skin serves as a protection for them. The lights reflect off the leaves to shine through the frog, making it harder for the predators to spot them. Glass frogs prefer living in the trees of mountainous and humid areas. Just imagine how it would be looking through the frog’s translucent skin and seeing its heart beating.
15. Sonoran Desert Toad
At 8 inches, the Sonoran Desert Toad is one of the largest toads in South America. As the name suggests, you’ll find these toads in the Sonoran Deserts. But they also occur in the pink oak woodlands and grasslands of major South American forests. These frogs have a typical olive green to brown skin and elongated glands on both sides of the head. Sonoran desert toads release extremely potent toxins from their glands. They intoxicate the animals who harass them through their mouth, nose, or eyes. These toads eat a variety of insects throughout their lives. Adult Sonoran desert toads eat beetles while giant desert toads eat small vertebrates, including other toads.
16. Goliath Frog
The frog you see here is the Goliath frog, the largest and heaviest frog in the world. It may not seem huge on the coloring page, but in reality, it can grow up to 33 centimeters in length and can weigh up to three kilograms. Even the giant African bullfrog is just half the size of the Goliath frog. The Goliath frog is endemic to West Africa. It can eat small snakes, crabs, insects, and even other frogs. It has massive legs that allow it to jump great distances, up to 10 feet. The Goliath frogs cannot make any sound because of the lack of a vocal sac. Unfortunately, just like many other species of frogs, even the Goliath frog is vulnerable to many human activities like pet trade, deforestation, and hunting. The Goliath frog now falls under the endangered species category.

If Princess Tiana kisses this frog, will he turn back into Prince Naveen? Well, we’re not very sure about that, but giving it some colors will bring this frog to life!

Unlike the Disney film, in the original story, the frog’s spell breaks when the princess throws it against the wall in disgust. Let your kid’s imagination take flight as he brightens up this scene. If you can get your hand on the original Fable, read out the story to your kid.
19. Lazy Frog
Mr. Frog is feeling too lazy to catch the bumblebee with his sticky tongue. But what will he eat if he lets go of all his prey? We believe that giving him some colors will get him back to life. Frogs have a long and sticky tongue that they roll out to snatch insects and bugs from the air. The frog then snaps back its tongue and throws the food down the throat. But many species of frogs do not even have tongues. Can your kid guess the name of that frog? Your little one will have a great time practicing coloring inside the lines.

It’s a pretty large frog and can grow up to twenty centimeters. The Surinam frog is a mud-brown frog with huge eyes and an extremely flat body. Its unique appearance makes a good camouflage for them. A unique feature of this frog is that it has no teeth or tongue. So instead of croaking like normal frogs, these toads strike two throat bones together to produce a clicking noise. Surinam frogs like to spend most of their time in the water. And while hunting, these frogs wait for the prey to come. Do you know what Surinam frog likes eating the most? Surinam frogs love to feed on mice, lizards, and large insects.
24. Harlequin Toad
This frog coloring sheet features one of the deadliest frogs in the world, the harlequin toad. The harlequin frog emits an extremely potent, toxic poison that is 100 times stronger than potassium cyanide. The frog changes its colors from black to yellow to purple to warn the predators to steer clear of them. The only creature that poses a threat to this frog is a parasitic fly. These flies lay their eggs on the frog’s eggs, which slowly enter their body. The eggs then devour the internal organs of the frogs, eventually killing it. Its number has also decreased rapidly because of the spread of fungus and changes in climate.
25. Darwin’s Frog
Here’s a coloring image of a Darwin’s frog. This frog is named after Charles Darwin, who discovered it while he was on his world tour. This frog is a resident of the cool streams of Argentina and Chile. These frogs are rather aggressive and do not hesitate before attacking animals larger than themselves. Do you know what makes this frog so unusual? It’s the way it takes care of the tadpoles. Mama frog lays the eggs, and papa frog guards the eggs for about 2 to 3 weeks. Papa frog then carries the surviving tadpoles in his vocal pouch. Yes, you read that right! It carries the tadpoles in its throat. The tadpoles develop in the chin skin. These babies hop out and swim away when they turn into tiny froglets.
