So the next time you’re looking for a way to keep your preschoolers engaged, try using color by number worksheets. They just might be the answer you’re looking for.

What is Included?

This color by code packet includes six summer-themed images for kids to color. These pictures include summer animals, summer treats, and more.

The worksheets feature numbers 1-12. They include all of the colors of the rainbow and black, grey, brown, and flesh.

PREPARING THE WORKSHEETS

This set of worksheets is print-and-go. This means, you just print them out and they’re ready for use with your preschoolers.

If your kids want to use markers or watercolors, you may want to print the pages on cardstock so they’re less likely to bleed through.

COMPLETING THE ACTIVITY

To complete these activity pages, your kids will follow the color code at the bottom of the page to reveal the hidden image.

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.
