This Australia coloring page features a map of Australia to color.

We made this outline of Australia map to use alongside the book, Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day, written by Judith Viorst and illustrated by Ray Cruz. This book is a must-read for kids who will instantly relate to several of the things that are making the day so difficult for a little boy named Alexander.

After you color the outline of Australia, point to another drawing of Australia on the map directly below it that shows all seven continents. All continents are labeled for beginning readers. This map coloring page is a great (kangaroo-like!) jumping off page for children. Here are some sample questions:

What’s the largest continent?

What’s the smallest continent?

Which continent do YOU live on?

Which continent starts with the letter S?

How many continents start with the letter A?

What continent has a lot of koalas? Kangaroos? (name your own animals!)

Show us your creations! Please post a picture on our Facebook page of your tools coloring page!
