Addition Coloring Worksheet: Color by Sum!

This worksheet combines addition practice with a color-by-number format, giving children ages 4-6 motivation to solve simple addition problems in each hexagon since the correct sum determines which color to use. Repeated, low-pressure practice adding small numbers builds fluency and speed, while the reveal of a colorful picture at the end rewards accurate calculation.

How to use this worksheet

Look at the color key together first, noting which color corresponds to which sum. Have your child solve the first addition problem, using fingers or small objects to count if needed, and say the sum aloud. Check the key to find the matching color, then color that hexagon. Continue through the page the same way, checking a few answers together as the picture starts to take shape.

  • Crayons or colored pencils

Extension activities

  • Create your own color-by-sum picture on blank paper with simple addition problems your child writes.
  • Use two dice, roll them together, and have your child add the numbers shown.
  • Practice addition facts with flashcards, timing how many your child can solve in a minute for fun, not pressure.
