About Letter W coloring pages

W looks like two Vs holding hands, and its sound makes kids round their lips. Letter W coloring pages show a whale, a walrus, a wolf, a worm, a watermelon, a wagon, a windmill and a watering can. Many of these are animals or things kids see outside, which makes them easy to talk about.

The W has four lines that zigzag. Color each line a different color for a bright look. Green and red make a juicy watermelon slice, and the whale looks great in blue with a white belly.

How to use letter W coloring pages for learning

  1. Round lips. Say "w, w, whale" and look in a mirror. Your lips make a little circle.

  2. Weather words. Use W to talk about weather, wind and water. Look out the window and describe the weather today.

  3. Watermelon seeds. Draw seeds on the watermelon page and count them. Then take some away and count again.

  4. W zigzag. Trace the W with a finger: down, up, down, up. Then draw a row of zigzags across the page.

Questions parents and teachers ask

Are letter W coloring pages easy for toddlers?

The Easy pages with a big whale or a watermelon are fine for toddlers. The W has more corners than most letters, so let them fill it in any way they like.

What colors start with W?

White and wine red start with W. White is a good color to talk about because on a coloring page you can choose to leave parts white.

Can I print all the letter W coloring pages at once?

Yes. When the page has pictures, the Download all button at the top saves every W picture into one PDF for printing.

Why does my child confuse W and M?

They are the same shape upside down. Put a W page and an M page side by side and turn one over. Seeing the flip helps children remember which way each one goes.
