How to use this worksheet
Start with the color key at the bottom of the page so your child knows which sum matches which color. Have them solve the addition problem written inside each heart, saying the numbers aloud as they add. Once they have an answer, they find that number on the color key and color the heart with the matching crayon, continuing until every heart is solved and colored.
