About this worksheet
This sheet shows a smiling construction worker standing straight on, waving with his left hand while his right hand grips a hammer down by his side. He wears a rounded hard hat with a stripe down the middle, a pair of dungarees with two shoulder straps, two round buttons, a chest pocket and two side pockets, plus a pair of thick boots with turned-up cuffs and ridged soles. There is no background scenery, just the figure on a plain page, so the focus stays entirely on him.
Almost every shape here is large and closed off with a clear black line, which is exactly what makes it good for small hands. The hard hat, the body of the dungarees and the boots are all wide, rounded spaces a child can fill in with a few big scribbles without much need for care. The hammer, the buttons, the pockets and the face are smaller and give slightly more of a challenge for a child who wants to slow down and stay inside the lines. The waving hand and the friendly expression also give parents something easy to talk about, like what job a builder does or what a hammer is for.
As a colouring task it sits on the easy end, with simple, separated sections and nothing fiddly or overlapping. It suits toddlers just starting to hold a crayon as well as preschoolers who want to add detail to the smaller parts. There is nothing to trace or write, so it works purely as a colouring sheet rather than a workbook page.
How to use this sheet
Let your child start with the big dungarees or boots before moving to the smaller hammer and pockets, so they build confidence first. If the hammer feels too fiddly, it is fine to leave it plain or colour it in one go.
