School Bus Coloring and Cutting Worksheet for Preschoolers

How to use this worksheet

Have your child color the school bus first, choosing whatever colors they like for the body, windows, and details. Next, guide them to cut out the separate window and wheel pieces along the dotted lines, offering help with any tight curves. Once all pieces are cut, have your child arrange the windows and wheels onto the bus in the correct spots before applying glue. Press each piece down firmly and let the glue dry before handling the finished school bus.
