Learning colors becomes easier when young children have simple activities that let them practice one skill at a time. This free Sort by Color worksheet helps little learners practice recognizing and sorting red and blue pictures.
Children look at each picture and decide whether it belongs in the RED or BLUE color box. Then they draw a line from the picture to the matching box.
🎨 Sort the Pictures by Color
This worksheet focuses on two basic colors:
🔴 Red
🔵 Blue
The activity includes six colorful pictures for children to sort.
Red pictures:
🎀 Red bow
🌹 Red rose
🔴 Red button
Blue pictures:
Blue bird
🔵 Blue ball
Blue balloon
Using only two colors keeps the activity simple and manageable for young learners.
✏️ How to Use This Worksheet
Start by showing your child the two large color boxes at the top of the worksheet.
Point to each one and say:
“This is red.”
“This is blue.”
Next, look at the pictures together. Ask your child to identify the main color of each picture.
For example:
“What color is the rose?”
When your child recognizes that the rose is red, encourage them to draw a line from the rose to the RED box.
Continue until all six pictures have been matched.
