The gallery ranges from Paddington waving or tipping his hat to busy scenes with a newspaper, gardening tools, or a runaway bathtub. His suitcase and umbrella make easy shapes for younger children, while London streets and landmarks give older kids more to look over.

Meet Paddington in these London scenes

Paddington is the bear at the center of the 2014 film Paddington, directed by Paul King. In these pictures, he explores London with his suitcase and umbrella, bringing the film’s familiar mix of city adventures and everyday mishaps to the page.

Look for him outside Buckingham Palace, beside a double-decker bus, or near London Bridge. These recognizable places can prompt a little storytelling: where is Paddington going, and what might he do when he gets there? Other scenes take him to a park, a sidewalk, or a flooded staircase, where the setting helps turn the coloring into an adventure.

What colors should you use?

For a familiar look, color Paddington’s coat blue and his hat red. A touch of orange suits the marmalade jar, while brown works well for his fur and suitcase. These choices are easy to spot, but there’s room to make the umbrella, cake, and newspaper your own.

London scenes can use gray sidewalks, green park grass, and bright red buses. The British flag gives children a chance to color its red, white, and blue sections carefully. For the flooded-stairs picture, try pale blue water against warmer colors on the steps and walls.

Choose by age and coloring level

Most of the pictures use clear outlines and simple shapes, so a young child can get started without needing to fill in tiny spaces. For a 3-year-old, point out one large area at a time, such as Paddington’s coat or the suitcase. A 7-year-old may enjoy adding colors to the background and making up a story for each scene.

Easy Paddington coloring pages for kids

The simpler drawings show Paddington sitting on his suitcase in a park, waving as he walks, or standing with his arms open. The outline with a suitcase and marmalade jar keeps the subject especially clear for preschoolers. A flying Paddington with his umbrella and suitcase has a fun, unusual pose, while the picture of him staring at a double-decker bus invites children to add color to the vehicle too.

Cute Paddington coloring pages

For a sweet, cheerful scene, choose Paddington waving the British flag in front of London Bridge. The backyard wave and the picture of him carrying a bundle have a similar friendly feel, with simple poses that are easy to color. These are a nice pick when a child wants to focus on Paddington rather than a detailed setting.

Scenes with a few more details

Some pictures give older kids a little more to work on. Paddington rushing through London with his newspaper, umbrella, and suitcase has several objects to color, while his gardening wheelbarrow brings tools and a new setting into the scene. He also plays with a dog, shares a sandwich with Winnie the Pooh, and rides a bathtub down flooded stairs; each picture offers a different story to tell.
