About this worksheet
A free printable what color is it worksheet: nine black-and-white pictures of things that always have the same color, an apple, a carrot, a banana, a leaf, blue jeans, grapes, a pink-frosted donut, a log and a pumpkin. Under each picture are three crayons with their color words; kids circle the right one and color the picture. Colored answer key on page 2. Little ones can do most of it with crayons, and a grown-up can read the short questions aloud.
Tips for using it
- Name one color at a time and use it all day: the red apple, your red socks, the red car.
- Use real crayons that match the page; a crayon labeled with its color word helps link word and color.
- Ask 'Is it red or blue?' instead of 'What color is it?' while a color is still new: choosing is easier than naming.
Printing tips
Download the PDF and print at 100% (or “fit to page” on A4). Page 1 is the worksheet and page 2 is the answer key with the answers in red; print just page 1 if you want to keep the answers for checking. Free for personal, family and classroom use.
