Make learning extra sweet with the number 6!
This printable worksheet introduces the number six using a large raspberry illustration at the top of the page to grab children’s attention and build excitement. Young learners begin by tracing the digit 6, following dotted lines that help them understand number formation and develop early handwriting skills. They also trace the number word “six,” supporting early literacy and number–word recognition.
At the bottom of the worksheet, children will find 10 small raspberries in a row. Their task is to color exactly 6 raspberries, reinforcing counting, quantity understanding, and one-to-one correspondence. This hands-on activity helps kids connect the written number with a real quantity they can count and color.
