Color Sorting Worksheet: Cut and Paste the Pictures!
This worksheet helps children ages 3-5 practice color recognition and sorting by cutting out pictures and gluing each one into the row matching its color. Physically sorting objects by a single shared attribute, like color, builds early categorization skills, while the cutting and gluing strengthens fine motor coordination needed for more complex craft and writing tasks later on.

How to use this worksheet
Look at the pictures at the bottom of the page together and name the color of each one. Have your child cut out each picture carefully along the dotted lines. One picture at a time, ask which color row it belongs in, then have them apply glue and place it in the matching row. Continue until every picture has been sorted and glued, then review the finished page and count how many items ended up in each color row.
