What Is A Color By Number Activity

Color by number activities are fun coloring printables that have many benefits that aid in your child’s development. Some of the many benefits include:

• Following Instructions – Color by number is an activity that has only a few rules. The most important being that you only color the sections of the paper that are connected to the correct number. For instance, if the color key says red is 1, then all places on the activity that read a 1 should be colored a red color. It encourages children to adhere to the rules and the color code.
• Number Recognition – Color by number sheets use numbers to code for the color in the key. This helps children to recognize the numbers on the page and to connect them to their corresponding color.
• Fine Motor Skills – Coloring is a great activity that most young children can do. It helps children to develop their hand-eye coordination as well as developing skills in manipulating tools.
• Focus – Coloring by number encourages kids to focus and concentrate on the activity. They need to concentrate in order to match the correct number with the correct color code.
• Encourage Children To Be Creative – What’s great about color by number activities is that even if the child doesn’t follow 100% of the numbers and color codes, that’s ok. The child can express their creativity and color in whatever color they want. These color by number activities can be used as coloring sheets also.
• Completing Tasks – Color by number has a game-like feel to it. The action of finding all of a certain number and coloring it in lends to this game-like feeling and thus encourages children to complete the game.
