Fun Multiplication Coloring Worksheets
Looking for a creative way to practice basic math facts? These multiplication coloring pages are a great way to make multiplication practice fun!
Mastering the multiplication facts is a process that can take a surprising amount of time. If your third grader (or beyond) is struggling with basic facts, it can be discouraging.
I’ve been there, friends. And it’s HARD.
Rest assured that your child WILL eventually master the multiplication facts . . . even if it’s not when an arbitrary guideline says they should.
If you’d like a way to teach times tables while keeping math fun, you’ll love these no-prep multiplication worksheets.
Printable Color by Code Worksheets
Color by number activities are a fun way for kids of all ages to practice basic multiplication skills. A coloring sheet is definitely more fun than repetitive math worksheets (even for older kids).
I made these color by number printables with homeschoolers in mind, but teachers love them, too.
If you teach in a classroom or homeschool co-op, these are a great no-prep activity for multiplication morning work, math stations, or early finisher activities.
In these spring-themed multiplication coloring worksheets, kids will solve each single-digit multiplication problem and then use the color codes to color the picture.
This set includes 8 color by code printables, with one page each for multiplying by 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9. Use the worksheets for reinforcement/review or to target specific facts that students may be struggling with.
Each worksheet can be printed in either color or black and white, and a full-size answer key is included for each page. (Answer keys shown below.)

Printable Mystery Picture Worksheets
If you need a more challenging multiplication page, you may want to try these hidden picture worksheets. Instead of having a picture outline to color in, these color by number multiplication worksheets have a grid of 100 squares to color.
Kids have no idea what the picture will be when they start solving the problems. They’ll actually be excited to solve the problems so they can color in the squares and see the picture emerge.
Each set of mystery picture worksheets (spring, summer, fall, and winter) includes 9 mystery pictures, with one page each for multiplying by 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9.
