About boat
- Sailing boats do not always travel in the direction the wind blows; they can sail toward the wind by moving in a zigzag pattern known as tacking.
- The earliest known boats were dugout canoes made by hollowing out large tree trunks thousands of years ago.
- A sailboat's keel acts as a heavy underwater counterweight that keeps the vessel upright and prevents it from tipping over in strong winds.
Frequently Asked Questions
What coloring tools work best for this page?
Crayons, colored pencils, and washable markers all work wonderfully with this sheet. If your child prefers markers or paints, printing on cardstock will keep the ink from soaking through the page.
What if my child does not have the exact shades listed in the color key?
Exact color matching is not necessary for your child to have fun and practice their skills. Any blue, red, brown, or yellow they already have in their coloring box will produce a bright and cheerful picture.
How can I help a younger child who is just learning numbers?
You can color a small swatch of each color directly over the numbers in the key before handing the page to your child. This gives beginning readers a clear visual guide to help them work independently.
