Holiday Color by Number

Free holiday color by number worksheets. Solve addition facts to 18 and color by the answers: ten pictures for each of twelve holidays.

Color by number for the whole holiday calendar. Every sheet is a 12 by 14 grid of addition facts with sums to 18; solve a square, find its answer in the key, and color it. When the last square is done, a holiday picture is there. There are ten pictures for each of twelve holidays, 120 in all.

Choose any of them from the Picture list in the settings, where the pictures are grouped by holiday. Or open a holiday's own page below to see its ten pictures finished, side by side, before you print. Either way the sums are new every print and the picture is the one you chose.

The key lists exact answers, so every square has to be worked out. The number settings work as on any addition worksheet: narrow First number and Second number for beginners, set Pages for a stack, and tick Answer key for the finished picture with every answer written in.

Frequently asked questions

Which holidays have color by number pictures?

Twelve: New Year's, Valentine's Day, St. Patrick's Day, Easter, Cinco de Mayo, Fourth of July, Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, Hanukkah, Diwali and Chinese New Year (Lunar New Year). Each has ten pictures and a page of its own, listed under the sheet.

How do I choose a picture on this page?

Use the Picture list in the settings. It groups the pictures by holiday, and the one you choose is the picture the problems are dealt into. A holiday's own page shows its ten pictures finished, which is easier to choose from by eye.

Do the holiday sheets use different math from the other color by number pages?

No. They are the same addition facts with sums to 18, the same key of exact answers and the same 168 squares, so a holiday sheet is a seasonal version of the ordinary color by number addition page.
