Meeting the Ham-Hams: A Color Guide

If it has been a few years since you watched the show, you might be a little fuzzy on the exact color palettes. Nothing is frustrating for a perfectionist kid (or adult) than using the wrong shade of blue for Bijou’s ribbons!

To help you make your Hamtaro coloring page look just like the anime, here is a quick character cheat sheet.

Hamtaro (The Star)

Our hero is energetic and brave. To get his look right, you need a warm, vibrant approach.

• The Fur: Bright orange and white. The orange patches are on his ears, around his eyes, and on his back.
• The Vibe: Leave his tummy and paws stark white for contrast.

Bijou (The French Sweetheart)

Bijou is known for being refined and adorable. She requires a delicate touch.

• The Fur: Pure white.
• The Accessories: Her distinct twin ribbons should be a deep, royal blue.
• Pro-Tip: Use a light grey crayon to gently shade the edges of her white fur so she doesn’t disappear into the paper!

Boss (The Leader)

The rough-and-tumble field mouse with a heart of gold.

• The Fur: He is mostly dark grey/brown with a cream face.
• The Gear: Don’t forget his signature yellow hard hat and shovel!

Pashmina & Penelope

The inseparable duo.

• Pashmina: Cream-colored fur with a pink scarf.
• Penelope: The tiny toddler hamster. She is usually covered by a yellow blanket, showing only her brown ears and face.

3 Pro-Tips for Coloring Anime Characters

Coloring isn’t just about staying inside the lines; it’s about making the image pop off the page. Because Hamtaro characters have large, simple eyes and bold patterns, they are perfect for practicing advanced techniques.

Here is how to elevate your Hamtaro coloring page from “good” to “fridge-worthy masterpiece.”

1. The “Anime Eye” Sparkle

Anime eyes are famous for their shine.

• The Technique: Before you color the black or brown pupil, identify the “white bubble” or reflection in the eye.
• The Trick: Use a white gel pen after you finish coloring to add extra highlights to the eyes. It makes the character look instantly more alive and cute.

2. Blending Fur Textures

Hamsters are fluffy! You don’t want them to look like plastic toys.

• The Technique: Instead of coloring in long, straight lines, use small, circular motions with your pencil.
• The Trick: If you are using markers, do a base layer of color, and then go over the darker shadowed areas (like under the chin) with the same marker again while the ink is still wet. This creates a seamless gradient.

3. Background Magic

Most printable sheets come with a blank white background. This is your chance to get creative.

• The Idea: Draw sunflower seeds, little tunnels, or even the sky.
• The Trick: Use watercolor paints for the background around the hamster. The contrast between the crayon-colored character and the soft painted background looks professional.

Why Coloring is Great for “Ham-Ham” Fans of All Ages

You might think printing out a Hamtaro coloring page is just a way to keep kids busy for twenty minutes, but there is actually a lot more going on beneath the surface.

Fine Motor Skill Development

For the little ones (ages 3-6), Hamtaro characters are ideal educational tools. Unlike complex superhero drawings with thousands of tiny lines, Hamtaro designs are round, bold, and simple. This helps toddlers practice grip strength and hand-eye coordination without getting frustrated by details that are too small to color.

Nostalgia Therapy for Adults

Let’s be real—adult coloring books are a massive trend for a reason. There is something incredibly soothing about disconnecting from digital screens and focusing on paper.

• Stress Relief: The repetitive motion of coloring lowers activity in the amygdala (the brain’s fear center).
• The “Comfort” Factor: Revisiting characters from your childhood brings a sense of safety and nostalgia, which acts as a mood booster.

So, don’t be afraid to print a sheet for yourself while you’re printing one for the kids!

DIY Craft Corner

Once you have finished your Hamtaro coloring page, don’t just toss it in a drawer. Let’s turn that artwork into a functional craft!

Here are two easy projects you can do with supplies you likely already have at home.

1. The Ham-Ham Stick Puppets

Turn your art into a toy!

• Step 1: Color your favorite characters (we recommend using cardstock if your printer handles it, but regular paper works too).
• Step 2: Carefully cut out the hamster shape, removing the background.
• Step 3: Tape a popsicle stick or a sturdy straw to the back.
• The Result: Now you have puppets! You can recreate scenes from the show or build a cardboard “Clubhouse” for them to play in.

2. Personalized Laminate Bookmarks

Since Hamtaro and his friends are small, they fit perfectly on a bookmark.

• Step 1: In your printer settings, set the Hamtaro coloring page to print at 50% scale (or choose “2 pages per sheet”).
• Step 2: Color the character and cut them out in a rectangle shape.
• Step 3: Glue the image onto a piece of colorful construction paper for a border.
• Step 4: Cover it with clear packing tape (poor man’s lamination!) or run it through a laminator. punch a hole at the top and add a ribbon (Blue for Bijou, obviously!).

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can I print these on regular printer paper?
A: Absolutely. Standard A4 or Letter paper (8.5 x 11 inches) works perfectly. However, if you plan on using markers or watercolor paints, we recommend using slightly thicker cardstock to prevent the ink from bleeding through.

Q: Are these images free to use?
A: Yes! These coloring pages are for personal and educational use only. Feel free to use them in classrooms, for birthday parties, or rainy day activities at home.

Q: Where can I watch Hamtaro now?
A: While it’s hard to find on mainstream streaming services, many clips and episodes are archived on YouTube by fans. It’s a great way to introduce the new generation to the Ham-Hams while they color!
