All about the legs! This page features a daddy longlegs with a tiny oval body and eight extremely long, thin, gently curved legs splayed out wide as it stands tall over a small pebble and a single blade of grass. Those skinny lines give older kids a nice challenge to follow carefully, while the small body and few background pieces keep things manageable for younger colorers too. Here's a fun fact to chat about: the harvestman, the most common daddy longlegs, isn't actually a true spider at all — it has just one body part instead of two and cannot spin a web. Its remarkable legs can be many times longer than its body and even act like feelers to sense the world around it. Print it on US Letter or A4 and give those long legs any color you fancy.

Coloring Tips

  • Steady the legs — trace each long thin leg slowly with the side of your crayon so the line stays smooth.
  • One body color — fill the little oval body in a single shade so all the attention goes to those amazing legs.
  • Ground it — color the pebble gray and the grass blade green to make the daddy longlegs stand out on top.
