Color by Number Addition Worksheet: The Turtle!

Children ages 4-6 practice single-digit addition facts and then apply a color key to their answers, combining math fluency with careful visual matching as the turtle picture is revealed. The immediate visual payoff of a colored picture gives children a clear, motivating way to check whether their addition was correct.

How to use this worksheet

Look at the color key at the bottom of the page together so your child knows which sum corresponds to which color. Have them solve the addition problem written in each section of the turtle, saying the numbers aloud as they add. Once they find the answer, have them match it to the color key and color that section of the turtle with the matching crayon, continuing until the whole turtle is colored in.
