How to Print and Download

  • Use the Download PDF button on any card to print the US Letter page, with an A4 option available too.
  • Choose portrait orientation before printing.
  • Select fit to page so the whole drawing stays inside the margins.
  • Black-and-white printing saves ink and keeps the lines crisp.
  • Use cardstock for crafts, classroom displays or marker coloring.

Coloring Tips and Ideas

  • For preschoolers, offer two or three crayons and let them fill the pony, mane and grass in big relaxed strokes.
  • For older kids, try colored pencils on the ranch, mandala and wild horse pages for smaller details.
  • Markers can work well on cardstock; place scrap paper underneath to protect the table.
  • Invite kids to choose a barn palette, a favorite mane color or a pretend show ribbon color.
  • Turn one finished page into a stable door sign, notebook cover or farm theme bulletin board.

Fun Facts About Horses

  • Horses are odd-toed ungulates, a group that also includes rhinos and tapirs; each hoof is built around a large middle toe (Smithsonian Q?rius).
  • Ancient horse relatives appear in the fossil record about 58 million years ago, and some early ancestors were only about dog-sized (Smithsonian Q?rius).
  • Horses are natural grazers that eat small meals through the day when grass or hay is available (University of Minnesota Extension).
  • Horses cool themselves by sweating, and an adult horse at rest may drink about 6 to 10 gallons of water daily in a cool climate (University of Minnesota Extension).
  • Przewalski's horses from Central Asia are often described as the last truly wild horses; many free-roaming horses in other places are feral domestic horses (Smithsonian National Zoo).
