Minion Rollercoaster Fun Coloring Page

Minions riding a rollercoaster brings together two things kids love: those silly yellow characters and the thrill of an amusement park ride. The combination creates a coloring page full of movement, with twisted tracks, excited expressions, and maybe a few goggles flying off in the chaos.

What colors work best?

Start with the classic minion yellow for the characters, but don’t feel locked into it. The rollercoaster itself offers lots of freedom. Bright reds and blues work well for the track and cart, while purples and greens can make it feel more fantastical. Try using contrasting colors for the track supports versus the rails to make the structure pop. The background sky could be anything from sunset oranges to deep twilight purples, depending on the mood you want. Metallic gel pens or markers can add a nice shine to the cart and track bolts.

Did you know?

The first rollercoaster-like rides were actually used in 17th century Russia, where people rode down ice slides on sleds. Modern steel rollercoasters didn’t appear until 1959, which allowed for those wild loops and corkscrews we see today. The tallest rollercoaster in the world, Kingda Ka in New Jersey, launches riders to 128 miles per hour in just 3.5 seconds.

How to color this one

Colored pencils work really well for this page since you can layer them to show the motion blur of a speeding cart. Try using lighter pressure in some areas to suggest speed lines or wind. For the minions themselves, add a touch of orange or brown to shade the yellow bodies so they don’t look flat. The denim overalls benefit from two shades of blue, darker in the seams and folds. If your page has a detailed track background, consider using cooler colors there so the warm yellow minions stand out in front.

Who’ll love this?

Kids who’ve been to theme parks will enjoy coloring this as it brings back memories of the rides. It also works well for minion fans who want something more action-packed than a simple character portrait. The mix of curved lines and mechanical details keeps older elementary kids engaged without being overwhelming for younger colorers.
