Sharing is caring!

Use this Chinese New Year Color by Number as the perfect way to combine coloring and learning fun! Once you print, follow the directions and start! Having Preschool Worksheets and worksheets for early learners is a great way to keep them engaged.

The fun thing about these color-by-number printables is that they focus on various things associated with the Chinese New Year! Just print, grab your supplies, and get started! It’s as simple as that!

When was the last time you and the kiddos did a coloring activity? It’s time to get one started right now! They’re fast and straightforward and great for their brains!

These printables are perfect if you’re ready to work on coloring and fine motor skills. Gather up the markers, crayons, and colored pencils, and talk to the kids about how to get started.

Since these coloring pages have simple directions, the kids must understand there is a specific way to color the pages based on the listed numbers.

Once they understand, it’s time to get started!

What is the learning benefit of these printable pages?

What I love about color by numbers is that it works on many different learning variables for the kids. Not only can they work on number skills, but they can also work on color identification skills, too.

We keep the colors and numbers simple for this activity because it’s not meant to be hard. But just in case, stay close and be there if they come across anything they need help with!

What it includes:

This printable packet includes multiple pages with varying pictures on them. The pictures are about the Chinese New Year and are numbered with corresponding colors to match.

It’s the perfect way to work on simple number identification while matching the right colors, too. When I say that this has multiple learning layers, it’s the truth!

        

 

Fun ways to use this printable:

While it might seem that a color-by-number activity is pretty standard, don’t be fooled! You can easily use this activity to launch and try out other new fun ideas also.

Here are a few easy ideas and activities you and the kids can start immediately!

Don’t forget to talk to the kids and see what fun ideas they can think of. Since they’re the ones doing the activities, they might as well have a say in them.

Create new color by numbers

Once the kids get the hang of coloring color by numbers, let them be creative and create their own color-by-number printable.

This doesn’t have to be anything complicated. Easy is fine, so there is no pressure at all.

Have them create an animal or shapes, and let them have fun from there. There really aren’t any set “rules” when it comes to creating this. Just let them take control and have fun!

Talk about their zodiac signs

Have you introduced your child to the zodiac sign of their birthday? This is a super fun activity to learn even more together.

From zodiac signs in the sky to talk about the animal that aligns with the zodiac timeframe, many learning opportunities are waiting!

Break all the coloring rules

Sometimes, opposite days are what it’s all about. Do you ever have those days when you want to do the opposite of what you’re told to do?

If you have them, you know that the kids also have them. When this happens, sometimes it’s just downright fun to run with it.

If you’re supposed to color the numbers a specific color, have the kids pick an opposite color instead. This is a silly way to keep them entertained and focused all at the same time.
