Thanksgiving Color by Number

Free Thanksgiving color by number worksheets. Solve addition facts to 18, color each square by its answer, and choose from ten Thanksgiving pictures.

Choose a picture

Solve the sums, color the squares, and a Thanksgiving picture appears. There are ten Thanksgiving pictures to choose from, shown finished in the gallery above the sheet, so you can see what the sheet will make before you print. Every square holds an addition fact with a sum up to 18, and a key at the top lists which answers get which color.

Thanksgiving week is short and restless in most schools, and a seasonal sheet gives the days before the break a shape. In the United States the holiday is the fourth Thursday of November; the sheets are the same wherever you print them.

The key lists exact answers rather than ranges, so each square has to be worked out, not guessed, and no answer belongs to two colors. Each print deals a fresh set of problems into the picture you chose. Set Pages for a stack of different sheets, and tick Answer key to get the finished, colored-in Thanksgiving picture with every answer written in its square.
