Place the pictures to match the colors in the caterpillar

A smiling caterpillar fills the top of this page, its body made of six circles labeled with color words: red, orange, yellow, green, blue and purple. Below a dotted cutting line are six pictures to cut out: a blue whale with a water spout, a smiling sun, an orange goldfish, a green pod with a happy face, a red rose and a purple eggplant.

Children cut out the pictures and glue each one onto the circle that matches its color, reading the color words as they go. It practices color recognition, reading color names and cutting along straight lines, and it suits preschool and kindergarten.

The same matching game comes with other shapes. Try the cups or flower petals versions.
