10 Craft Ideas to do With Mailman Coloring Pages
Once those colorful mailman pages are complete, don't let them gather dust! These easy, affordable crafts will put your little artist's masterpieces to creative use.
1. Mailbox Masterpiece
Transform a shoe box or tissue box into a vibrant mailbox! Cut out your colored mailman figures, letters, or mail trucks and glue them all over the outside. Don't forget to cut a slot in the top for “special deliveries” of pretend mail.
2. “Special Delivery” Puppet
Bring your mailman to life with a simple puppet. Carefully cut out your colored mailman figure, then glue it securely to a craft stick, popsicle stick, or even a sturdy paper straw. Use your puppet to deliver imaginary letters and packages around the house!
3. Mail Carrier Visor
Create a fun, wearable mail carrier visor. Cut a long strip of poster board or construction paper to fit around a child's head, securing it with tape or staples. Then, cut out and glue a prominent colored mailman or mail truck onto the front for a personalized uniform accessory.
4. Mail Truck Photo Frame
Design a unique photo frame shaped like a mail truck! Draw or cut a mail truck outline from cardboard or thick paper, then cut a window opening for a favorite photo. Decorate the truck's body with smaller cut-outs of mailmen, letters, or stamps from your finished coloring pages.
5. “Routes and Roads” Play Mat
Draw a simple road network with houses on a large piece of poster board or butcher paper. Cut out your colored mailman figures and mail trucks, then laminate them with clear contact paper or glue them onto cardstock for durability. Kids can then move their “mail carriers” along the routes, delivering to each house.
6. Postage Stamp Collection
Make your own “postage stamps” from your coloring pages. Carefully cut out small, interesting sections of the colored pages (e.g., a mailman's face, a letter, a mailbag) into square or rectangular shapes. Glue them onto a larger piece of construction paper with drawn “perforated edges” to create a unique stamp display.
7. Mailman Appreciation Card
Fold a piece of construction paper in half to make a greeting card. Glue a full, beautifully colored mailman page onto the front of the card. Inside, write a heartfelt thank you message for your real-life mail carrier to show appreciation for their hard work!
8. “Parcel Post” Gift Tags
Turn small sections of your colored mailman pages into adorable gift tags. Cut out interesting shapes (rectangles, circles, even miniature mail trucks) and punch a hole at the top. Write “To/From” on the back or glue a small blank piece of paper there, then attach them to gifts with string or ribbon.
9. “Letters to Loved Ones” Envelopes
Craft custom envelopes using construction paper and your coloring pages. Cut out and fold construction paper into an envelope shape (templates are easy to find online). Before gluing it together, decorate the front of the envelope with small cut-outs of mailmen, letters, or mailboxes from your colored pages.
10. Mailbag Money Pouch
Fashion a small mailbag pouch for coins or little treasures. Fold a piece of sturdy felt or construction paper in half, then cut it into a mailbag shape. Glue the sides together, leaving the top open. Decorate the outside with cut-out letters, mailman emblems, or even miniature mail trucks from your coloring pages.
