Circle every red one

The first color worksheet a preschooler meets: one picture, many colors, and a single word to find.

How it works
Ages3–6TypeFocus

Find the color, then circle it.

A color recognition worksheet generator, printable as a PDF. Choose a theme and a picture that can be any color — a fish, a balloon, a rocket — and the page fills with it in three to six colors at different sizes and turns. The question names one color, with a dot of that color beside the word, so the sheet works before a child can read the color word and keeps working after. Hard puts the neighbor color in — red beside orange, blue beside purple. Black-and-white printing is off for this one: there is nothing to see without color.
