How to Use These Coloring Worksheets

Read the color key together, then ask your child to find the word inside each picture and choose the matching crayon. Color the balloons, kites, and fish; on the flower page, color the petals using the word in the center; on the ice cream page, color the scoop. The activity objects are left uncolored so children can complete them themselves.

Printing and Classroom Ideas

Print the activity pages in color to preserve the crayon reference key. Use A4 paper and fit-to-page printing if needed. Choose one theme for a short color recognition activity, a literacy center, or supported preschool and kindergarten practice. Use the supplied terms of use page for sharing and usage information.
