Sight Word Coloring Fun: Hear, Make, What, and Our!
Sight words like 'hear,' 'make,' 'what,' and 'our' appear so frequently in beginning reading that children need to recognize them instantly rather than sound them out every time, and this coloring activity turns that repeated recognition practice into an engaging, low-pressure task. For ages three to five, associating each word with a specific color also adds a visual memory cue that can help the word's shape stick in mind.

How to use this worksheet
Review the color key at the top of the page together, matching each sight word to its assigned color. Go through the candies one at a time, having your child read the sight word written on it before choosing the correct crayon color. Have them color each candy fully, saying the word out loud again as they color it in. Once finished, ask your child to point to and read all four sight words from the page one more time without looking at the color key.
