Free Downloadable Coloring Pages for iPad Procreate: Learn to Import & Color
Love coloring on your iPad? So do I! Whether you’re discovering a new character or adding magic to your favorite Worlds To Discover pages, using Procreate is one of my favorite ways to bring these stories to life.
Here’s a quick step-by-step guide to help you download and color your free PDF pages using the Procreate app.
Step-by-Step Instructions:
1. Download Your Coloring Page
Visit WorldsToDiscover.com on your iPad and go to the Freebies page.
Tap the coloring page you want, then use the share icon (a square with an arrow pointing up) in the top right corner to save the PDF to your iPad’s files.
2. Open in Procreate
Launch the Procreate app and tap Import in the top right corner. Navigate to the downloaded PDF file in your Files app and select it.
Procreate will open the PDF as a new canvas automatically!
3. Start Coloring
Once the coloring page is open in Procreate:
- Tap the Layers panel
- Select Layer 1, which contains the black outline
- Add a new layer underneath to color beneath the lines (this keeps your outlines clean)
- Use the brush tool to start coloring!
💡 Tips for a Better Coloring Experience:
- Adjust the opacity of the line layer if needed
- Use the selection tool to fill in larger areas quickly
- Try different brushes for textures — watercolor, crayon, soft airbrush, etc.
✨ Why Use Procreate?
Procreate is a powerful, intuitive drawing app made for iPad. It’s a one-time purchase (around $13), and it’s perfect for:
- Kids and parents who want to color digitally
- Educators assigning fun at-home creative work

🎨 Don’t Have Procreate?
No worries! You can still download and print the PDF coloring pages to enjoy them traditionally with crayons, markers, or colored pencils.
