un Things to Do With Your Number Coloring Pages
Here are creative and engaging ways to use these number coloring pages beyond traditional coloring.
Make a Number Wall Poster
After coloring, arrange the completed sheets in numerical order on a large piece of poster board or a wall. This creates a colorful reference tool for kids to learn number order, practice counting, and decorate their space. Laminate the pages for durability!
DIY Flashcards
Cut out the numbers from the coloring pages once colored. Glue each one onto a sturdy piece of cardboard or cardstock, creating custom flashcards. Use them for counting games, number recognition practice, or matching activities.
Number Collage
Provide kids with magazines, newspapers, or old books. Once they color a number page, have them cut out pictures of objects that match the number they’ve colored. For example, for the number “5,” they can find five apples or five cars. Paste the pictures around the number to create a fun collage.
Create a Number Book
Staple together the completed pages in numerical order to create a personalized number book. Write fun sentences or facts about each number on the back of each page, turning it into a mini-learning resource kids can revisit anytime.
DIY Number Puzzle
After coloring, cut the number pages into puzzle pieces. For younger kids, make 4-6 large pieces; for older kids, create smaller, more intricate pieces. Mix the pieces up and challenge kids to reassemble their work!
Count and Match Game
Pair the number coloring pages with small objects like beads, buttons, or toys. After coloring a page, ask kids to count out the corresponding number of objects and place them on the page. This activity reinforces counting and one-to-one correspondence.
Personalized Birthday Banner
Use the number coloring pages to make a customized birthday banner. Have kids color the numbers of their age, then string them together with ribbon or yarn. Add extra decorations like balloons or stars to complete the festive look.
Number Hunt Activity
After coloring the pages, hide the numbers around the house or classroom. Create clues or give kids a checklist to find all the numbers in order. It’s a fun way to combine learning with an exciting scavenger hunt!
Classroom Number Line
For teachers, these coloring pages make an excellent classroom display. Once colored, line the numbers up on a bulletin board to create a vibrant number line that kids can use as a reference for counting and basic math activities.
Magnets for the Fridge
Turn the colored pages into fridge magnets! Cut out the numbers, laminate them, and stick a small magnet on the back. Kids will love arranging and re-arranging their creations on the fridge while practicing counting.
DIY Number Mobile
Make a hanging mobile with the completed coloring pages. Cut out the numbers, attach strings to them, and hang them from a coat hanger or embroidery hoop. Place it in a kid’s room or classroom for a cheerful display of numbers in motion.
Matching Numbers with Words
Combine the coloring pages with word labels. After coloring, have kids match the number “3” to a flashcard that says “three.” This activity helps bridge number recognition with word comprehension.
Countdown Chain
Use the number coloring pages to create a countdown chain for special events like holidays or birthdays. Color the pages, cut out the numbers, and attach them with loops of paper to form a chain. Remove a number each day as the big day approaches!
Math Games and Worksheets
Pair the number coloring sheets with math activities. For example, after coloring, write simple addition or subtraction problems on the page for kids to solve. They can also use the numbers to practice skip counting or multiplication.
