I recently tried a new teaching resource in my art classes—coloring pages converted from images—and the results have been outstanding. This approach not only enriches classroom content but also greatly sparks children's interest and desire for creative expression.
Method 1: AI Coloring Page Generators - Fast and Efficient, Perfect for Course Material Preparation
The platform I use most frequently is iColoring.
This platform is completely free, has no advertising interference, and features clear privacy policies, making it very friendly for students and family users.
The operation process is also very simple:
1. Open the website and upload a photo you like
2. Wait for the progress bar to complete automatic processing
3. Download the generated line art image, print it directly, or use coloring software on an iPad for creation
This convenient method is not only suitable for teaching but also perfect for family interaction. Parents can work with their children to convert a special family photo into line art, then color it together to create meaningful family artwork.

Currently, there are many high-quality tools available in the market. Here's a simple comparison of the tool platforms I've used:
Method 2: Traditional Manual Processing
Sometimes I also guide students to use hand-drawing techniques to "recreate" images. This method is suitable for older students or those with foundational drawing skills. The advantage of this approach is that it allows for stronger personal expression.
Have you ever tried converting photos into coloring pages? Have you applied this method in classroom teaching, holiday projects, or parent-child activities?I welcome discussions about more teaching tools and creative methods, so we can enrich our classrooms together and ignite children's artistic inspiration.

Creating coloring pages is one of my students' favorite things to do! They use the editing tools right in Photos to create coloring pages from images they take on their iPad. It doesn't create such simple lines as the tools you mentioned, but it's a great activity for students who finish early or need a quiet break. I have them adjust the exposure, brilliance, highlights, black point, sharpness and shadows to the maximum, contrast, brightness, saturation, vibrance, tint, and definition to the minimum.
After students edit their photo, they can share their coloring page, and use photo mark up tools to color them in.
