Coloring is always so much fun for both kids and adults of all ages. A great way to add something a little extra to a standard coloring page is by working on a color by number page.
What is a color by number worksheet?
At the top of the coloring page, you will see a kay that will tell you which number corresponds with each color. For example, in this worksheet, wherever you see the number 1, you will be coloring that shape in blue.
The goal is to go through each shape and color it in with the designated color based on the key. After you are done, you will have a beautiful ocean themed scene that is worthy of display!
If your kids are able to read, this is also a great way for them to practice their literacy skills.
However, kids who aren’t reading quite yet can definitely still benefit from and enjoy this type of worksheet.
Simply draw a small circle of the corresponding color next to each number in the kay at the top of the page. By doing this, kids can have a visual guide of what color to fill in each shape with.

Favorite Supplies and Software:
These are a few of my favorite supplies and software that I use and LOVE!
- Flodesk: Tired of paying more and more money each month as your email list grows? With Flodesk, the price stays the same no matter how many subscribers you have! Use my affiliate link to give Flodesk a try today for FREE!
- White Cardstock: For most projects, I recommend printing onto cardstock. It is much more durable than standard printer paper and often produces a higher quality print.
- Crayons: A staple in any crafting household. Crayola is always the top notch choice!
- Kid Friendly Safety Scissors: These are perfect for little kids learning how to use scissors. They cut paper but not fingers or hair!
- Glue Sticks: These disappearing purple glue sticks are by far my favorite! I love buying them in bulk since we use them so often!
- Lamination Machine: Laminating printables are a great way to make them last longer. If you are planning on laminating to make games reusable, be sure to get a bunch of dry erase markers as well.
- Dry Erase Pockets: Dry erase pockets are a great alternative to using a lamination machine when wanting to make printable games and activities reusable.
- Printer: A high quality printer is always recommended for the best results. If you are in need of a printer this Brother Wireless Printer is a great choice.
