Dolphin coloring pages are simply too beautiful to discard! Instead, turn them into fun, lasting crafts with these exciting ideas.

1. Dolphin Jumping Through a Hoop

Turn your dolphin into a little acrobat!

Have each child draw a decorative hoop on a blank sheet of paper.
Cut a small slit inside the hoop’s center.
Once the dolphin is colored and cut out, slide it through the slit to create a stunning 3D effect of a dolphin leaping through the air!

2. Dolphin-Themed Door Border

Transform your classroom or bedroom into an underwater paradise!

Color and cut out multiple dolphins.
Tape them along the doorframe, lining both sides and the top.
The final look? A charming dolphin-themed wallpaper border!

3. Underwater Aquarium Decor

Give a fishbowl or aquarium a playful makeover!

Cut out multiple dolphins in different sizes.
Tape them around the outside of the bowl in any pattern.
Swap them out with fresh designs whenever inspiration strikes!

4. Mirror Image Dolphin Card

Create a unique, foldable dolphin greeting card!

Color two identical dolphin pages.
Attach them back-to-back so that when the card opens, a perfect mirror image appears.
Add a heartfelt message, some glitter, and stickers for extra flair!

5. “Under the Sea” Mural

Craft an ocean adventure on a giant poster board!

Have kids draw waves on a blue background.
Color and cut out dolphins to glue onto the board.
Let creativity flow by adding fish, coral, sea turtles, and more with crayons or markers!

6. Dolphin Wall Ornament

Create a stylish wall hanging using dolphins!

Cut out and mount three dolphins on cardboard.
Arrange them in a triangle, with each dolphin’s nose touching another’s tail.
Punch a hole at the top, thread a colorful string through, and hang it on a wall or door!

7. Peek-a-Boo Dolphin Bowl

Make mealtime more fun with a dolphin surprise!

Cut out a dolphin and attach it to the bottom of a clear plastic or glass bowl (on the outside).
When the bowl is empty, a playful dolphin appears at the bottom!
(Tip: Best used for dry food, and avoid dishwashing to keep the artwork intact!)

8. Find the Dolphin’s Home

An interactive learning game!

Pre-cut dolphins from coloring pages and trace their shapes randomly onto a large poster board.
After coloring, kids must match their dolphin to the correct shape and glue it in place.
Once completed, the poster makes a fun classroom or home decoration!

9. Floating Dolphin Mobile

Perfect for nurseries or kids’ rooms!

Laminate several colored dolphins and punch a hole at the top of each.
Attach them with strings to a wooden embroidery hoop or craft ring, varying the lengths for movement.
Hang it from the ceiling for a mesmerizing ocean-inspired mobile!

10. Dolphin-Themed Picture Frame

Give a plain frame an oceanic twist!

Glue your colored dolphin page onto thin cardboard (like a cereal box).
Cut out the dolphin and attach it to the top of the frame as if it’s swimming above the photo.
Get extra creative by adding shells, glitter, or seafoam-colored paint around the edges!
These fun and creative ideas will help you preserve your dolphin masterpieces in unique ways. Which one will you try first? 🌊🐬✨
