Compare & Match

Compare sizes and lengths in elephant, sunflower, block-tower and toy-train scenes, or find matching patterns on mittens, cups and socks. The fish and pencil pages leave more space around the main shapes; the garden and home scenes offer smaller details. Try giving each matching pair the same colors.

Compare height or match a motif

Decide what to look for before coloring; colors help mark your observation.

Mark the taller and shorter towers

Print the original line drawing linked below. The numbered areas match the color key and steps; use the colored example as a starting point, then choose your own colors if you prefer.

Digital coloring example

Two towers with five yellow blocks, three blue blocks and red caps.
A digital color suggestion, not a photograph of a printed result. Open the original line drawing to print and try your own colors.
  • 1. Yellow tall tower
  • 2. Blue short tower
  • 3. Red pointed caps
  1. Color the five square-front blocks in the left tower yellow.
  2. Color the three square-front blocks in the right tower blue.
  3. Color both pointed caps red. Leave people, room and loose blocks white.

Point to the taller tower without naming its color. Height is the comparison; the palette is your choice.
