About these color worksheets
These sheets help young children learn color names. Some questions show a color blob and ask which picture matches it, and others show a picture and ask what color it is. Bright pictures and clear color blobs keep it simple for little learners.
Preschool pages use six main colors: red, orange, yellow, green, blue and purple. Kindergarten adds pink and brown and gives four answers to choose from, so kids look a little more closely. Print in color for best results. Kids can also color their own pictures afterward to keep practicing.

Questions parents ask
When do children learn their colors?
Many children learn basic color names between ages 2 and 4, but it varies a lot.
What if my child mixes up two colors?
That's common, especially with similar colors like purple and blue. Practice one pair at a time with real objects.
Are these worksheets okay for black and white printers?
Color worksheets need a color printer, since the colors are the point of the activity.
