Schools often talk about Martin Luther King Jr and the impact he had on the civil rights movement. Sometimes, however, households don’t cover this topic as much.

So I wanted to offer some fun color by number pages that can spur interest and conversation about why we celebrate this man’s life with a holiday.

The other benefit to these MLK coloring pages is that they make GREAT cold-weather activities for kids!
