Buddy for coloring pages

Tell me what to draw and who’s coloring it. I’ll make the page and send it back, ready to print.

A dad in Greenville, South Carolina, with two kids, a rainy Saturday, and a printer that works.

Both coloring pages in this conversation are ones Buddy made from these texts.

Tell me what to draw and how old the colorer is. Ask for a PDF and it’s ready to print.

  • Make a coloring page of an octopus running a bakery, simple lines for a 4-year-old.
  • Make five coloring pages about space for a 6-year-old’s party, all in one PDF.
  • Turn this photo of our cat into a coloring page.

From a silly idea to a page to color

  1. Tell me what to draw

    The sillier the better. Add their age so I know how simple or detailed to make it, or send a photo to turn into a page.

  2. I draw it

    Clean lines on a white page, made from your idea. If it’s too busy or too plain, say so and I’ll make another version.

  3. Print it

    Ask for a PDF and print it at home. For a party, ask for several pages in one file.

More you can ask for

  • Make a coloring page of a dinosaur driving a tractor.
  • Make a coloring page of the Statue of Liberty for her history unit.
  • Make a Thanksgiving coloring page with a big turkey for the kids’ table.
  • Make a harder one with more detail for my 8-year-old.
  • Make a coloring page with her name in big bubble letters.
  • Send me a new coloring page every Saturday morning.

What you get back

  • A page made to print

    A coloring page as a PDF you can print at home. Ask for several pages in one file when you need a stack.

    Work with files

  • Made from your own photos

    Send a picture of the dog, the house, or the kids, and I’ll turn it into a page to color. Tell me what has to stay recognizable.

    Images and video

  • Easier or harder

    Bigger shapes for little hands, more detail for older kids. Tell me what to change and I’ll make another version.

Questions people ask

How do I print it?

Buddy sends you the file in the conversation. Print it from your phone or computer, or ask him to email it to your own address first if that’s easier.

Can he make a whole book of them?

He can put several pages in one PDF, so you can print a stack at once. Tell him the theme, the ages, and how many pages you want.

What if a name or a letter comes out wrong?

Words inside a picture are easy to get wrong. Check names and spelling before you print, and tell Buddy exactly what to fix.

Can my kids text Buddy themselves?

Buddy is for adults 18 and older in the United States, so a grown-up does the asking. The kids do the coloring.

Ask for the strangest thing they’d want to color.
