Famous places in one set
The set brings together well-known Indian monuments with clear outlines that are easy for young children to follow. Younger children can colour large shapes on buildings such as the Taj Mahal, India Gate and the Red Fort. Older children can work on domes, arches, windows, pillars and smaller decorative details. The pages give children a gentle way to notice the different shapes and styles found in India's historic buildings. For a related activity, pair this set with Map of India Coloring Pages and help your child find where some monuments are located.
Ideas for home and school
At home, choose one monument after reading a short library book or looking at a family photograph from a visit. Ask your child to pick colours based on the real building, then allow a second version with an imaginative colour scheme. In class, use the pages for a culture corner, a quiet art task or a display arranged by region. Children can write the monument name, city and one describing word below their picture. Older pupils can compare two pages and talk about domes, towers, gateways and courtyards.
Three facts children can remember
The Taj Mahal is in Agra and was built by Shah Jahan in memory of Mumtaz Mahal. India Gate stands in New Delhi as a memorial to soldiers who died in the First World War. The Qutub Minar is a tall historic tower in Delhi, with carved bands and balconies rising around its outside. These facts can be shared before colouring, then children can add the city name or a small symbol from the place to their finished picture.
Lumi's tips
- Make the activity easier by naming two or three colours for the main parts of the monument and leaving the smaller details for later.
- Make it harder by asking your child to label the monument, city, state or union territory and one feature such as a dome or minaret.
- Keep it connected to real life by finding the monument on a map, in a book or in a family travel photograph after colouring.
