Valentine's Day Color by Number

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

Choose a picture

Solve the sums, color the squares, and a Valentine's Day picture appears. There are ten Valentine's Day 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.

Valentine's Day parties are short and noisy, and a color by number sheet gives the quiet corner something to do. It also works as a seasonal center in the days before February 14, with addition facts as the practice and a picture as the reward.

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 Valentine's Day picture with every answer written in its square.

Frequently asked questions

Which pictures are in the Valentine's Day set?

There are ten Valentine's Day pictures, shown finished in the gallery above the worksheet. Click one to choose it and the sheet below changes to that picture. The Picture list in the settings offers the same ten, among every other holiday's.

Can I use this for a Valentine's Day party or card-making day?

Yes. Print a stack with Pages and each child solves a different set of sums into the same picture. Set a few pictures out and let children choose, since every one of the ten uses the same kind of key.

Can I print a Valentine's Day sheet without a color printer?

Yes. The key names every color in words as well as showing a swatch, so a black and white printout of a Valentine's Day sheet works as well as a color one. The picture appears when the squares are colored in.
