Up nextUS Map with State Names →Advertisement
A map of the United States made for coloring: thick outlines, every state named, and a rounded border and title in bubble letters to color in too. Children can color each state a different color, color the states they have visited, or color by region. The small states on the north-east coast are named outside the map with a line to each one. Tap a state to fill it online, or print the PDF and use crayons.

Coloring ideas
- Use four colors so that no two states that touch are the same color. It can always be done, which mathematicians proved in 1976.
- Color by region: one color each for the Northeast, Midwest, South and West, as on the US regions map.
- Color your own state first, then its neighbours.
