How color by number works
Each square on the grid has a clue. Kids find the answer in the color key and color the square to match. When every square is colored, a hidden picture appears β a heart, a house, a fish, a rainbow and more.
Five ways to play
- Numbers β number recognition for preschool and kindergarten.
- Letters β letter recognition practice.
- Addition facts β sums up to 18, perfect for first and second grade.
- Subtraction facts β differences from 1 to 9.
- Multiplication facts β times tables up to 10 Γ 10 for third and fourth grade.
