Educational Benefits of Color By Number Printables

While you’re having fun with these color by number printables, you might also enjoy some sneaky educational benefits. Here’s a few reasons you might want to include these worksheets in your classroom or homeschooling curriculum.

Get Kids to Concentrate and Focus

Obviously, in order to complete a color by number printable, kids will have to sit down and focus for long periods of time. They will need to concentrate on what they’re doing in order to color in the right spaces in the right colors. This is a good way to teach young children about how to focus and concentrate. In an age when our attention is so often divided and scattered, this is an invaluable lesson. Perhaps us adults could learn a thing or two as well.

Teach Numbers and Colors

Kids will also need to learn about numbers and colors, of course. Young learners will get to learn numbers not just as a thing they memorize, but as something they can apply for a practical purpose. They will have to recognize the numbers in order to identify them in the correct spaces in the color by numbers printable. This gives them an easy exercise where they can practice, but they won’t even realize it. They think they’re coloring, but all the while they’re learning their numbers.

Incorporate Language Learning

Young children in particular might get some language learning benefits from color by number printables. In order to complete a color by number printable, children have to identify not just numbers, but also colors and shapes. They may discover they need words for those things. Take the chance to teach them those words in a context where they can immediately put their new knowledge to a practical purpose that can help them remember it.

Instill Self Regulation

A color by number printable is essentially a solitary activity. That inherently comes with the need for patience and self-control in order to complete the worksheet. This isn’t just a matter of focus, but also a matter of regulating your emotions to achieve something. Kids might even encounter frustrations at times. Overcoming and managing those frustrations is an important lesson for children to learn.

Learn Fine Motor Skills

Of course, the actual coloring requires fine motor control and dexterity. These types of skills are still developing in young children, so the more practice they can get, the better. It might seem like a small thing to us as adults, but it takes time to learn to color within the lines, and it is actually something we need to practice at. A fun activity is a great way to do that.
