Color Sorting Fun: Cut and Paste Worksheet for Preschoolers

How to use this worksheet

Start by looking at the four color boxes at the top of the page, Yellow, Orange, Red, and Green, and naming each color together. Have your child carefully cut out the pictures at the bottom of the page along the lines, offering help as needed. One at a time, ask your child to hold up a cut-out picture, name its color, and decide which labeled box it belongs in. Once they've sorted correctly, have them glue each picture into its matching color box, pressing firmly to secure it.
