Sailboat on the Waves Color by Number
Coloring guide
Three wavy lines of water hold up a simple sailboat, and nearby are a smiling sun, two puffy clouds and a little bird in flight. Every space is numbered from 1 to 6. The sun is 1, the big cloud is 2, the small cloud is 3 and the bird is 4. On the boat itself, the large sail is 3, the smaller sail is 4, the hull is 5, and the flag and round top of the mast are 6. The waves go 1, 2, 1. Big shapes and clear numbers make it a good pick for preschoolers and early learners working on number recognition. Yellow for 1, light blue for 2 and 3, and red for the hull will make the boat pop. It's a free printable PDF that makes an easy quiet-time activity at home or at school. Looking for more?
