Exciting facts about medieval children’s games

Did you know that children in the Middle Ages began to imitate combat and tournament exercises at an early age? Wooden swords served young nobles as safe training weapons to practice technique and posture. Even the sons of simple townsfolk made wooden gear to reenact knightly games. The shields often displayed heraldic colors or simple paintings, allowing each participant to show their house or allegiance. Tournaments were not only spectacles for the nobility but also provided craftsmen and merchants with opportunities to showcase their goods. Markets and festive tents around the battlefields created a lively atmosphere where poor and rich folk mingled. Children would watch the knights, mimic their maneuvers, and test their courage to the fullest. This coloring page captures that playful spirit and brings you back to the time of knights and castles.

Color suggestions for the knight tournament

When coloring, bold colors work particularly well: red and blue for the coats of arms, brown and beige tones for wood and leather, gray or silver for metal fittings. You can design the participants' clothing in green or yellow, according to your taste. For the background, light sky tones or earthy color gradients make sense so that the knight figures stand out. You can get the coloring page for free in JPG format. Print it out and use traditional pencils or try the digital coloring directly online. Have fun coloring and creating your very own tournament scene!
