Back to school coloring pages are perfect for easing the transition from summer fun to studying and homework. I know how hard it can be to get the kids excited about school, especially when they've enjoyed running free in the neighborhood all summer. Simply the words “Back to school” are liable to inspire dread, but these coloring pages will help your kids get focused and prepped for a brand new school year.
