About this worksheet
A colour-by-key page using shapes instead of numbers, which makes it accessible a year or two earlier than the usual colour-by-number sheet.
The key sits at the top: circle means red, square means blue, triangle means green, star means yellow. Your child then works through a grid of twenty shapes applying the rule. Holding a four-part rule in mind while working across a page is real cognitive work, and it is the main point of the sheet rather than the colouring itself.
This one requires four specific crayons, so it is worth checking you have them before printing.
How to use this sheet
Do the first row together, checking against the key each time. After that most children can finish the page on their own.
