Coloring Brown Pictures Worksheet

Brown is a fun color word for young children to learn, and it shows up in acorns, cookies, footballs and cozy winter boots. This coloring brown pictures worksheet gives kindergarten students three short, hands-on ways to practice the color, from writing the word to finding brown things in a set of pictures.

The page has three short tasks. To start, children trace the word brown and then write it on their own, using large handwriting lines sized for kindergarten. Next, they use a brown crayon to color three simple pictures: a football, an acorn and a chocolate chip cookie. Last, they look at four bright pictures and circle the two that are brown, a boot and a basket, next to a yellow lemon and a green pear. It works well for morning work, a color center, homework or a quick check. Page two is a complete answer key.

What’s Included

• 1 print-ready PDF worksheet
• Trace and write the color word brown
• 3 pictures to color and 4 pictures to sort by color
• Answer key

Here are three reasons this page helps. First, children read, trace and write the color word, so the word and the color are learned together. Second, coloring real objects brown ties the color to things children see every day. Third, circling the brown pictures among other colors asks children to compare and choose, which builds the sorting skills used in early math.

At home or in class, go on a brown hunt: look for a brown shoe, a brown leaf or a brown teddy bear, and name each one. Sort a pile of blocks or buttons into brown and not brown. Play I Spy with colors only. Keep a copy of this coloring brown pictures worksheet for a class color book, and this kindergarten colors worksheet page fits right in, one color at a time.
