Color Sorting Fun: Cut and Paste Worksheet for Preschoolers

How to use this worksheet

Look at the color boxes labeled on the page together, naming each color aloud. Have your child cut out the objects at the bottom of the page along the dotted lines. For each object, ask them to identify its color and decide which box it belongs in. Guide them to glue each object into its matching color box, then review the finished groups together, naming each color and its sorted objects one more time.
