Colouring worksheets are a simple, fun way to help kids learn and express themselves.

Perfect for hot summer days or anytime kids want a fruity art break!

What’s Inside This Worksheet

• A full watermelon to colour.

• Several watermelon wedge slices with visible seeds.

• Rind texture (stripes) on the full watermelon.

• Leaf details surrounding the fruit for added colouring area.

• The word “Watermelon” in bold letters for recognition and reading.

Why It’s Useful

• Fruit & Nature Learning – shows both whole fruit and slices; teaches what watermelon looks like inside and out.

• Vocabulary & Reading – helps children recognise, read, and associate the word “Watermelon” with the image.

• Shape & Pattern Recognition – the rind stripes and seeds provide texture and visual variety.

• Colour Learning – opportunity to use greens, reds, pinks, whites or cream for rind inner part, maybe brown/black for seeds.

• Fine Motor Skills – colouring detailed parts like seeds and rind, working carefully in smaller shapes.

How to Use It (Tips & Instructions)

1. Print the page on paper suited for colouring (thicker is better if using markers).

2. Introduce the watermelon: maybe show real watermelon or picture; talk about its taste, colour, how we eat slices.

3. Read the word “Watermelon” together; possibly have the child trace or write it themselves.

4. Start colouring larger areas first (whole fruit rind, leaf), then move to smaller details like seeds and rind stripes.

5. Extension ideas:

   • Use this as part of a summer fruit theme.

   • Do a simple counting activity: count seeds, count slices.

   • Try a taste test: real watermelon, compare texture, smell, taste.

   • Art extension: draw background with picnic scene, or design pattern on rind.

Bring some freshness and colour into learning with this Watermelon Colouring Worksheet. Print, colour, and enjoy every juicy slice! Perfect for children who love art, fruit, or just being creative.
