About this coloring page
A printable color-by-number mystery picture worksheet with a hidden ornament. Solve each subtraction problem (answers up to 10) and color the square by its answer. Every square is a quick math fact, so it doubles as addition or subtraction practice. Add white for snow.
This page by the numbers
The picture has 156 numbered squares on a 13 x 12 grid, colored with 5 crayon colors. Red (number 2) fills the most squares: 58 of them. White (number 7) is used the least, with 3. Every answer is a number from 2 to 7, so each answer matches one color in the key.
- 2 = red: 58 squares
- 3 = green: 26 squares
- 4 = light blue: 52 squares
- 5 = yellow: 17 squares
- 7 = white: 3 squares
Coloring ideas
- Red, green and gold make a classic Christmas palette.
- Check each answer by adding it back to the number taken away.
- Count back on your fingers or the number line for the hardest facts.
- Color one number at a time: find all the 1s, then all the 2s, and so on.
