Number 16 With a Crab Coloring Page

Sixteen goes straight back to the ordinary teen pattern after fifteen bent it, so this sheet is an easy win to hand a child who has just worked through the harder one. Read it aloud, ask where the six is hiding, and let them point at it themselves. Children remember a rule far better when they are the one who spotted it. The number fills most of the page as two large bubble outlines, and the wide open middles suit a fat crayon or a marker equally well. A smiling crab sits below with two round claws and plain legs, drawn in the same thick line and left completely blank inside. The claws are a good place to start colouring because they are small and enclosed, which gives a child an early sense of having finished something. Everything on the sheet prints as clean line art on white paper. Download the free PDF and print it on US Letter paper alongside the rest of the set.
