Frequently Asked Questions
What art supplies work best for this coloring page?
Standard crayons, colored pencils, or washable markers all work wonderfully with this printable. If your child chooses markers, consider printing on heavier paper or cardstock to prevent bleed-through.
How can I help younger children who are still learning their numbers?
You can color in the color key boxes together beforehand so your child can easily match the colors to each number visually. Reviewing the numbers together out loud turns coloring into a supportive, confidence-building learning activity.
What should we do if we do not have all the shades of brown?
You do not need exact color matches to make a wonderful picture. Feel free to substitute any tan, gray, or brown crayons you have available, or show your child how to press lightly or firmly with one pencil to make different shades.
