Snowman Color by Number with a Red Scarf
Just four spaces to color on this snowman color by number for ages 3 to 5: a red scarf, a green hat band and an orange carrot nose, in 3 colors.
Choose a level
Three snowballs with no number make up most of this snowman, and they stay white, so it looks like real snow when the page is done. The tall top hat, the eyes, the dotted smile and the three buttons all come printed solid black. That leaves four small jobs.
Scarf, band and nose
Red, number 1, goes on both pieces of the scarf: the part wrapped around the neck and the end that hangs down. Green, number 2, fills the band around the hat, the only part of the hat that is not black. Orange, number 3, is the carrot nose. Under the picture, the key shows each of the three colors beside a swatch and its name.
Snowflakes afterward
This is a single easy page for ages 3 to 5. With only four numbered spaces, a young child can finish it in one short sitting, and there is room afterward to add snowflakes or a snowy hill around the snowman. The carrot nose is small, and so is the 3 inside it, which is why the print dialog should stay at 100 percent for the A4 or Letter file. The finished snowman is on the second page of the PDF.
Skills practiced & tips
- Read the three color names in the key together before starting.
- Color the two scarf pieces first, since number 1 appears twice.
- Leave the three snowballs white, as the note under the key asks.
- Add snowflakes or a snowy hill around the snowman once the numbers are done.
Snowman fun facts
- Most snowflakes have six sides or six arms because of the way water molecules line up when they freeze into ice.
- Snow looks white because light bounces off the many surfaces of its ice crystals, even though ice itself is clear.
Classroom ideas
- Preschool (ages 3 to 5): set out only red, green and orange crayons and match each one to its number before starting.
- Pre-K: ask children to point to every part with no number and explain why it stays white.
- Kindergarten: use the three color words in the key as a short reading practice.

Frequently asked questions
How many levels does the snowman color by number have?
Just one. It is an easy page for ages 3 to 5 with 3 colors. Older children who want more colors can try the Christmas tree or reindeer pages, which go up to 7.
Which parts have numbers?
Four parts are numbered: the two pieces of the scarf are 1 for red, the hat band is 2 for green and the carrot nose is 3 for orange. Everything else has no number.
Why is the hat already black?
Black is not one of the key colors, so the hat comes printed solid black on the worksheet. Only the band around it is numbered, and children color that green.
What stays white?
The three snowballs. The note under the key says parts with no number stay white, and the answer page of the A4 and US Letter PDFs shows them that way.
