10 Geometric Coloring Pages

Geometry is the math of shapes, and artists have used geometric patterns for thousands of years, from ancient Greek pottery to the tiled walls of the Alhambra in Spain. A tessellation is a pattern of shapes that fit together with no gaps or overlaps, like the hexagons in a honeycomb. Dutch artist M. C. Escher became famous for tessellations that turned into birds, fish and lizards. This collection features shapes and patterns. There is a 3D cube pattern that tricks the eye, a hexagon pattern, a tessellation, a geometric star, a geometric heart and a geometric mandala. A geometric fox is built entirely from triangles. An easy geometric design and cute geometric shapes suit younger kids learning shape names. Coloring each section a different shade creates a stained glass effect, while using light, medium and dark versions of one color on the cube pattern makes it look three-dimensional. These pages are great for math lessons, focus and calm.
