Color By Number Bee
These fish-themed color by code printables are a fun way for preschoolers to practice number recognition through eight.
They’ll also practice reading color words for all of the colors of the rainbow plus pink, brown, black, and grey.
HOW TO USE THE PAGES
To begin, print out the pages in this worksheet packet. I like to print them on standard printer paper.
Grab your preferred coloring medium. I prefer for my kids to use crayons – Crayola crayons to be exact. I think Crayola crayons color smoother than any other brand.
Your preschoolers can also use markers or colored pencils, if you’d prefer.
VARIATIONS
If your preschooler isn’t ready to read and identify color words yet, set out only the crayons they’ll need to complete the page.
Use those crayons to color the color word on the worksheet. Then, preschoolers can use those as visual cues to decide which crayon to use.

The Life and Times of the Honeybee – Why do beekeepers use smoke machines when collecting honey? Can a bee really sting only once? Why do bees “dance”?
