Free printable color by number pages for kids

This is a growing library of free color by number printables you can download and print at home in seconds. Each page is bold black-and-white line art with a numbered color key — kids match every number to its color and watch a cute cat, dinosaur, unicorn, or rocket come to life. No signup, no watermark, nothing to install.

There are color by number for kids of every age. Toddlers and preschoolers love the bold version — just a few big, chunky regions and three or four colors. School-age kids enjoy the standard version with a richer six-color story. Use the toggle at the top to switch every page between toddler-bold and standard, then download the printable PDF or save the PNG.

Or make your own from a photo: our free color by number generator can turn a clear photo into a printable worksheet with a full-color answer key. Complex photos may need a simpler crop or a different image.

Frequently asked questions

What is color by number?

Color by number is a printable activity where each region of a picture is labelled with a number, and the color key tells you which color matches each number. Kids match number to color and fill it in — a calm, screen-free way to learn numbers and colors while making something they can be proud of.

Are these color by number printables free?

Yes — every color-by-number page here is 100% free to download and print, with no account, no signup, and no credit card. Print as many as you like for home, the classroom, or a party.

How do I print a color by number page?

Pick a picture, click the PDF button, and print it on any home printer on standard letter or A4 paper. You can also save the PNG image if you prefer.

Are these good for preschoolers and toddlers?

Yes. Every page has a bold ‘toddler’ version with just a few big, chunky regions and 3–4 colors — perfect for little hands. Older kids can use the standard version with a richer color story.

What ages is color by number for?

Color by number works from about age 3 up. Toddlers and preschoolers love the bold few-color pages; school-age kids enjoy matching more numbers and colors on the standard pages.

Can I make a color by number from my own photo?

Yes — upload a clear photo or drawing and choose a color level in our free color by number generator. Processing time varies, and some detailed photos may not convert. When it succeeds, download the worksheet and full-color answer key to print at home.
